When I was young, I often used
to find these discarded relics scattered on the garden path of our house. Looking
back at our home, I remember thinking that only a few decades before during the
air raids of the Second World War, it too had by luck or pure chance managed to
survive suffering a not too dissimilar fate.
Empty shattered ruin –
slow whorled demise
of an old snail shell.
