from the ABC set blah blah

As time turns clarity more claret-y
I see my childhood in a rose-tinted haze
or this may be because
Consett just f###ing was
Rose-tinted in those days.

Enjoyed reading :-) small typo 'those' and I'd say restore the F word, it works in the context of your poem. atb Lena xx
