St. Mary's, Cholsey


St. Mary’s, Cholsey, rests
in fading village confidence,
ignoring crumbling brick,
gathering its houses round
like a hen and her chicks.
No clucking; the church
is quiet now, the village
silent in twilight.

St. Mary’s Church, Cholsey, in Oxfordshire, is the burial place of Agatha Christie.
