WALKABOUTSVERSE 172 OF 230

Poem 172 of 230:  FURTHER NORTH - AUTUMN 2001

No-more down Wordsworth Avenue
    For a bus, past Bolton’s big stores,
To a train toward some new view -

On that shocking September day,
    Still single, and three months jobless,
In Newcastle I signed to stay.

Down Wordsworth Ave., Radcliffe; 12/5/22

Bolton Interchange and Train St.; 1/5/2021

Cruddas Park flats, Newcastle upon Tyne;
taken during spring 2014, and winter 2010.
P.S:  I've lived in just 2 more homes since -
a studio-flat in London & now Manchester;
plus possibly an aged-care home one day..?
