Old Trafford, Manchester , 20th May 2018
Stood on the corner
at a moments attention
looking on as the club i volunteer with
engaged in a mighty test of endurance in the northwest sun
Heat making everyone sweat
as feet hit the tarmac of Manchesters roads
rooting them on, the hardy bunch of volunteers
ready to applaud and guide them toward their rewards
it might not be cash – but that medals more than gold
even taking in its colour – as every year the
roads of Manchester take a pounding
