THE POETRY, PROSE AND QUOTES OF JMS AND OTHER WRITERS



Edited by Jimmy Boom Semtex


Row upon row they stood to sing,                                                                                                                           A thousand at a word.                                                                                                                                      And loud arose, "God Save the King".                                                                                                                                                             But as I watched and heard                                                                                                                                               The upturned faces in the light                                                                                                                                                           of the early afternoon,                                                                                                                                         Reminded me of the crosses of white                                                                                                           beneath a silent moon.
From 'Casting Off' (1939) Enoch Powell.
