Poetry for businesses Echo newspaper

Straight as a tear
falls,
is the Rush
with the Echo
on my morning
doorstep,

I look in.

I know the words
are worldly news,
the pictures happy
and the colours jumping.

Al the lights are ablaze
in Byron tonight,
it reports,
all of Nature friendly.
It seizes my Day,
I am not alone
in my Land,
I am not shaken,
by Antipathy.
I am Well and Strong,
and Stronger,
not stranger.
