Trinitys Bells peal and peal
X The title of this photograph I took of Holy Trinity Church in Hull is taken from the final line of a poem by Shane Rhodes. The poem is called “ The City Speaks “and it was first read at 20.17 on January 1st 2017. It was literally the opening event of the Hulls first year as UK City of Culture. It’s asking a lot for you guys to read the poem but there is a five-minute video of it being read accompanied by images of Hull. It’s an honest film as it shows the gritty side of the city as well as the attractive bits. Also you will hear the cadence of a genuine Hull accent, not pretty but authentic .The words of the poem have been engraved into the pavement of Victoria Square in the centre of the city so they will outlive this year and one trusts a great many more.

For those of you who want to
read the poem, the text its at the top of the comments I have just put a few explanatory notes at the end of the poem and thanks a lot for your indulgence with all this stuff on Hull
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT AND FOR TAKING THE TIME TO WRITE A COMMENT IT’S MUCH APPRECIATED AND SO MUCH MORE INTRESTING THAN JUST GIVING A FAVE
