ALL the people rejoiced
I saw it out of the corner of my eye.
A poster, Zadok the Priest.
Suddenly I was transported
My 15 year old self
proud member of
Havering Youth Choir.
I had sung the song
to a piano accompaniment
I wasn’t prepared for
an orchestral arrangement
oboes, bassoons, trumpets, strings
the subtle strings, building
to galvanising crescendo of trumpets
acoustics bounding round
St Andrew’s Church
leaving absolutely no doubts,
that ALL the people rejoiced.
