This is a wonderful poem but of course rather sad. Life wasn't worth much in those days. You may find my poem, entitled 'The Little Chimney Sweep' too worth a read if you have the time. Love and hugs Ernestine XXX
Dear David, This had such a dramatic ending to it, so, so sad, almost unbelievable, And then to find out at the end that it was in fact a true event, , , , well that just about capped it of, , Now... This has all come at such a strange timing, , I know that I can tell you this and that you will believe me when I say it, , but, JUST this afternoon, I was working with a group of Children and guess what the book was called...THE WORKING CHILDREN AND GUESS WHAT THE WORK WAS THAT THE CHILDREN HAD TO DO, , , YES! CHIMNEY SWEEP! how strange the timing of things, it was a play book about Dr Banardo, and how he saved two Children who had been working for a mean old guy called SCRAGSCUTT, , If only the poor Child that you had mentioned could have been noticed and then saved by such a gracefull soul such as Dr Banardo All the same this poem was skillfully crafted, very well presented and will remain just one of the wonderful acts that you share so easily THANKYOU DAVID* LOVE duncan X

I remember hearing a story on the news about that......sad commentary on our world....when everyone thinks life was so much simpler and better back then...not always so
