Ian,
You have excelled yourself with this poem. It called to mind those miners who went on strike in Kent during the second world war. These men also faced danger, long term danger when the war was over due to ailing health. Once again you have revisited history and composed verse as if you had been a participant. Well done. This is really good. Thank you.
Keith

It's lovely to receive such comments with this poem. Thank you all. I kept picking at it and altering words, but there has to be a resolution. I felt the man should just be a sort of background figure, not to disturb things too much. Really glad it kept the focus.
Peter, I know this is your sort of ground, so you are the perfect reader of it !
Marie, Received with thanks. Take care too.
Thanks Don, now I know my poem goes global!
Big Sal, your comment is a challenge for investigation thanks ! I wonder if the bread was granary, white etc? I don't think it really matters , maybe it was a sandwich disliked.
Avishek, What can I say? Nice one.
Darren, you do go that extra mile , worth it for me. Thank you mate. The simplicity is always hard to fire up.
Anya, well I do try, lass. Much appreciated.
Taylor, you make a great audience, thank you. It was my wife who was with me, but it was a lovely scene, and worthy of a poem !
Nice to hear from you Keith, hadn't seen you much onsite.
Glad it worked for you, and I always find I need to delve into verse to let it soak in.
Hannah, I have a really old book of my area, and that pond has been there for hundreds of years, so there's a sort of ghostly sense of lingering. I've used coracles before in a poem; one of those valuable words I suppose.
Many thanks for those likes, David and Becky !
Thank you Jennifer, I've been chewing over words for decades, but still they need hunting for! I always work on a poem nowadays until i'm satisfied (?). This one was a bitch that kept coming back to haunt me, but so glad it was well received !!
Love to all Ray

That crowd sounds as if it could get real ferocious Brian. I can picture 1,000's , yes 1,000's of bubblemakers aka troublemakers coming out in angst and smothering the opposition is bubbles. Players slipping and sliding. What a mess.
Sounds good fun. Pity I'm 10,000 miles away ?

Don you're in a 10,000 miles away bubble and don't really see much proper sport, hence my introduction to some good wholeheated football hooliganism.

My little bubble was happy floating around yesterday. Then Brian, the bugga, sends it to Ham United and look what happens? Gets a rock thrown at it. Our football fans aren't that cruel....

The juxtaposition is excellent, the humor is spot on, and the entertainment value is about as good as it can get. You made me laugh, so that's one more than anyone else has done today. Another great one for the books Becky. Speaking of which, when can we expect a book from you?!

Obviously being a man I can never fully understand but I do know its not easy and you ladies have my sympathy for all that you go through with child birth and caring for children. Holly McNish has written and performed a wonderful poem about breast feeding which I can recommend.
Great poem Becky. Love your work

Thanks Brian.
This poem can be interpreted from multiple perspectives. I tried to keep it that way, so that a reader can relate it to them in their own ways.
The title says, Disguised!! Its meant to be veiled! ?
Just kidding!?
Have a good day!!!
