Salford 15th January
The sun hasn’t risen yet,
Darkness fills the skies
And yet, I’m up with the sound
Of the rolling traffic and yelping dogs
For soon, on arrival
Young minds eager to learn
Will land by the place,
I call my second home
And for a short space of time
They’ll listen to a tale
Before venturing out into the space
Like wondering timelords
Taking in tales
From around the world
Of conflict and peace
From Britain to Greece
And I’ll be there for a while
With occasional smile
To guide them and show
The places to go
