In memory of all those affected by the bombings in London July 7th 2005
7th July One Year Along


One year along
London is strong,
will not be cowed,
let terror cloud
judgement. We will gain;
Life will remain
good. We will pray,
For all those that day.

For those that left,
for those bereft,
for those that fear,
for this last year.
For those that knew
bombers that blew
the very heart
of London apart.

For those who fought,
for those who sought
to maintain calm,
keep free from harm,
all affected,
all connected.
Let’s remember
July as an ember.

That grew to spark
light in the dark.
Hands healed, gave hope,
and strength to cope,
with death, with grief.
Love, our relief.
One year along,
our London is strong.
