The Clock of Man
~Eric Lomax

"At the beginning of time the clock struck one
Then dropped the dew and the clock struck two
From the dew grew a tree and the clock struck three
The tree made a door and the clock struck four
Man came alive and the clock struck five
Count not, waste not the years on the clock
Behold I stand at the door and knock."

Do you know the story of Eric Lomax? Have you seen
"The Railway Man" (2013)
