WHO! WILL PASS BY IN A WHILE
Oh isn’t it nice.
Peaceful.
Just to be quiet.
In formal dress.
The comfort of the house coat,
briefly.
Just to be still.
Silent.
Wordless.
Yet the mind writes a book,
in an instant.
The clock strikes.
The ninth hour
in the fore noon.
Just sit here awhile.
The silence. Be still.
Who? will pass by in a while.
It will not be long now.
Meanwhile, be all things
To all people.
Gentle,
kind,
resolute,
firm.
A tiny pebble on the beach.
Everlasting.

Ken Webb is a writer and proofreader. His website, kennwebb.com, showcases his work as a writer, blogger and podcaster, resting on his successive careers as a police officer, progressing to a junior lawyer in succession and trusts as a Fellow of the Institute of Legal Executives, a retired officer with the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve, and latterly, for three years, the owner and editor of two lifestyle magazines in Liverpool.
He also just handed over a successful two year chairmanship in Gloucestershire with Cheltenham Regency Probus.
Pandemic aside, he spends his time equally between his city, Liverpool, and the county of his birth, Gloucestershire.
In this fast-paced present age, proof-reading is essential. And this skill also occasionally leads to copy-editing writers’ manuscripts for submission to publishers and also student and post graduate dissertations.
