I like writing poetry so I would do it anyway but I am very happy if someone has read it  and esoecially a comment or a criticism to  give me the chance to improve what I have written

As most of you know,2017 has been a very hard one in Britain though nothing compared to many parts of our human world.
We had some serious terrorist attacks,two on London Bridges, one at Westminster near our Seat of Government.A policeman was also killed,Now if  you read that you may think it’s not too bad.But everyone who dies early loses their life, their world, for everyone has a unique world and we lose their contribution to our society, the love they give their family and friends, their presence in our city and country,  our security.
Many young people died in an attack in Manchester and later we saw Grenfell Tower on fire and learned many,many people died in their flats.It did not help that Boris Johnson had closed 14 fire stations in London.It was terrible for all of us here but especially for people living in Notting Hill to  know people close by were dying and firemen even broke the rules to go inside but they could not get to the top.
We know now dangerous materials were used as cladding.Nearby the wealthy lived in the areas where ordinary people used to live

This shows us what it is like in war torn areas and I hope makes us more sympathetic to the poor and to refugees,Remember,it could be us or our family.

Thank you all again.I hope to continue writing and I hope making you interested in what I write about and perhaps inspiring you to write or paint or take photographs
