Morden Sunrise
Coming down the hill it rises from behind the
many-storeyed concrete curves of Merton’s Civic
Centre, like a massive satsuma slowly slipping into
the morning pool and painting the ripples yellow,
orange and red. To the immediate left, the Mostyn
Park sparkles, London’s towers in the distance like
candles on a cake; take a breath and blow.
