    Mark, what a wonderful write! A battle of long ago still with whispers and remnants lingering in the fog and cold. Visually on point. 2 typos possibly? The second stanza, should hums be hymns? Also hinded, be hidden? If not, my apologies.

    Wow!
    Mark,
    This is simply a truly amazing piece. The story about the river Somme and the battles of ghosts, songs that are sung of heroes. Beautiful words and expression throughout.
    Pleased this is nominated, and well done
    Michael :)
