Anna Greene Poet I do not know?

Blue and Gold

Blue and Gold.

I'll keep the blue flag flying,
With its stars of gold.
A symbol of true friendship
Between enemies of old.

I'll keep the blue flag flying
As we hurtle into night,
My country burns with shameful hate
As we slide down to the Right.

This isn't what I wanted,
I voted to remain.
Ich bin Europäer
Je suis européene.

So as this day comes to an end,
And Big Ben doesn't bong,
I hope that in some years from now
We realise we were wrong.

We'll pull ourselves together
And ask to join again.
Porque soy europea
Et nous sommes tous européens.'

31st January 2020, Brexit Day
