Chapter Forty
The Hour
At Break of Day
I’ll set off now …
I’ll be there in fifteen minutes.
The Early Morning Hour
The Steeple Unseen Strikes the Mid-Day Hour
The Shadows Lengthen, Four After the Noon Hour
They’ll Be Home Soon
The Quiet Evening Hour
Across Town, it is the Early Morning Hour.
On t’other side of town doth the Steeple strike the Mid-Day Hour.
Shadows lengthen
Four after the Noon-Hour
They’ll be Home soon
The Quiet Evening Hour.
I’ve no lights on my bike
so I’ll leave now
and I can catch last light
on the side gate.

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.
