FebulousFebruary 2025: Lost and Found

TO MY YOUNG SELF

I am the keeper of our memories

I am the bearer of our flame

And the author of our wrongdoing

I am the blameless and to blame

I am the survivor of our history

Of our triumphs and our plight

I wear the badge of hard-won freedoms

And the scars of the long fight

Forgive us in youth

Forgive them in age

Hold fast to your righteous anger

Let go of your rage

Tread lightly

We are almost there

Brook Hobbins, Kent
