A glorious glow
\nIt\u2019s aura on show
\nAn ancient mellowness
\nA bygone throw
\nAn heirloom that sports
\nSuch venerable thoughts
\nAnachronistic
\nMinds eyes just feel
\nA candour a splendour
\nAs spirits reveal
\nA manifestation
\nUnfolding before
\nA real revelation
\nNo soul dare ignore<\/p>\n
Plain as a pikestaff
\nIt\u2019s relevance here
\nThe limelight frequenting
\nA historic fear
\nOf those who have rambled
\nThe cobbles and found
\nWhere The Myriad flesh
\nPurveyors abound<\/p>\n
And how David\u2019s lenses
\nHis elucidation
\nI just feel the substance
\nIt\u2019s a celebration
\nTo drift back to when
\nYorkshire\u2019s woodlands
\nWere cleared
\nThat\u2019s when these
\nBuildings would have appeared
\nThe meandering alleys
\nThe Shambles born
\nWhere so many butchers found
\nTheir new dawn<\/p>\n
All kinds of meat shops
\nResourceful they were
\nJust imagine the clutter
\nProviding the spur
\nTo life as it was then
\nShorter by far
\nFrom warring and famine
\nAnd the Black Death
\nThat scar<\/p>\n
That took many souls
\nBut what we still see
\nIs a bounteous glow
\nThe Shambles still be
\nProviding great wealth
\nSharing it\u2019s face
\nA true inspiration
\nAt today\u2019s pace<\/p>\n
And it has been captured
\nBy a spirited man
\nWith a wonderful art form
\nA lens that does pan
\nInto the past
\nAcross centuries, he
\nCaptures the spirit
\nAnd true ancestry<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
