Reflections of Coventry

I often climb the cathedral spire
like a pilgrimage 
I can see the whole of Coventry
In each corner I see a reflection of you and me

“Send them to Coventry”! I often hear them say
Please send them, send them right away!
We tend to tar a place with the same brush
Painting our perceptions 
colouring in your grass greener blush

I love my city
