The Daily Haiku – 465th Theme, LACE/ROOTS

Written by Carolyn Crossley VixenOfVerse

#TheDailyHaiku

my ancestors were
Huguenots who came over
to England for work

persecuted for
their Protestant religion
they fled France for England

Some came North to work
as weavers in the cotton 
mills - ex-lacemakers
