My Visit To The Wall

entry picture

Today I am being brave 
taking a journey on my own
I am nervous and apprehensive 
out of my comfort zone

I am heading south to Manchester 
Withington, Copson Street
Where I hope to find some people
I have planned to meet

I am going to meet a stranger 
who did a kind thing for me 
Placed my poem on the Marcus Rashford wall 
for everyone to see

When they visited the wall 
they said it was like England won that day
The actions of one loser
erased by what hundreds had to say 

Positive and kind messages replaced
what was done the night before 
Loser, one, winners in the hundreds
is the final winning score
