A Black boy walks with a White girl
Hand in hand
An Indian girl walks with a White boy
Hand in hand
A Japanese girl walks with a
Mixed Race boy
A woman with a niqab
Walking with a woman wearing jeans
An English builder with his Polish buddy
Buying egg and bacon rolls with coke
From a Chinese vendor who is
Selling German bratwursts
And American hot-dogs
A disabled man clutches loads of
Sandwiches, distributing them
among the homeless in front of the
Shopping centre, where
All the luxury goods are on full display
Meanwhile trains are passing by
From The Stratford International
A gateway to Europe
Even though the real link
Was severed some time ago
Once rundown city but
Now a cosmopolitan giant
Rising above the skylines
Beautifully as always
Showing us there is
nothing to fear
because
People are together
