Beckingham Park
There is a sculpture in Beckingham Park.
A soldier wearing a cloak points somewhere
with his head turned to another soldier.
Few seem to notice or perhaps they simply
do not care.
If they would read of the story they would not be so blind
to the war that was fought, the fallen behind.
The cloaked soldier calls to another who will not hear,
face down in his blood driven through by a bloody blade.
Where does the cloaked soldier point for the script does not say?
Perhaps we are not meant to know
but we have heard this same story before,
time and again throughout the history of war.

A great tribute to fallen soldiers who fought for what they belleved in, even if some today have forgotten.
