Idyllic picture of cows in the meadow. Before the Great War, when England was a country of pride, peace and passion. The war changed many things, and the young men of Lancashire perished for nothing. Today, no cows, and no meadow: just the memory of what was. In its place, a dirge that still sadly resonates between the green trees that are left. England is still bleeding. Its very heart broken into a million odd pieces.
