The Old Town

A Poem

Nov 3 · 1 min read

Mediaeval towers, mediaeval walls,
Mediaeval guilds, mediaeval halls,
Cobbled streets and twisting roads,
Austere churches, shops, abodes,
Weapons, ditches, ammunition,
Market stalls, a street musician,
Blocked-up windows, ghostly tales,
Harbour, ships and unfurled sails.
