A Two Paragraph Story and A Jotting, with videos (5)

By The River Fender
Kitty’s flight path took her to Heathrow then a train To Lime Street, Liverpool. Though it was not the River Mersey that she was looking for. She took a 472 Bus to Wirral though it was not the River Dee that she was looking for. She alighted the bus on the borderline between Prenton and Landican. She walked over the pedestrian high bridge and heading left on entry to the North West Trading Estate, she soon found himself walking beside the River Fender.
Kitty stopped to watch its flow on the spring thereby. She then proceeded to follow the pavement alongside the Fender. The place she sought soon came into view. It was the Memorial Stone with plaque for the 24 American Services Personnel who died in the crash of a US Liberator B24 in Landican in October 1944, just seven months before the end of World War II. For Kitty was an American who had heard all about it and came to pay her respects.
The Day
How was your day?
It went astray
Boots so annoying
Underwear so boring
How was your night?
Such a flight
Cat shat on bed
Oh, my weary head
