A Step Back In Time

in silence the shire plods his path in footsteps of the past Note: On holiday recently,we took a trip by canal barge pulled this way.Very evocative for me, as on my mother's side,her forbears were canal people,and thats how they happened to arrive here in my hometown.

Must have been a wonderful holiday. Your poem is so rich in thought. Imagining all that has not been said, and the emotion behind it. Love, Shar
