I was preaching in London's Hyde Park, it was a day when the Sisters of mercy were in town for an event so the place was packed with nuns in their distinctive white habits.
A little chinese girl saw my bible and supposed I was part of that crowd, she came running over and blurted out "oh I wish...
I will daughter you
follow you
wherever you may go
though ties may now be broken

unless loving arms enfold her
Sitting on a towel
down on Netley shore
eating bread...
