Monday/Tuesday Photo Prompt #3

I am joining with mybabyjohn/Delores and others in bringing you a photo to stimulate your imagination.  Please feel free to take the photo and run off to create a poem, a piece of prose or a picture to show us all.  If you do decide to take up this challenge, please leave a comment letting me, and others, know that you have joined into the Monday/Tuesday Photographic Pandemonium.

This plaque was set into the pavement in an area of town I go to quite often.  Until last week I had never noticed it, and I have been thinking about it ever since.
The Monday (Northern Hemisphere) Tuesday (Southern Hemisphere) Photo Prompt is a laid back project wherein anyone at anytime can join in..post a picture on a Monday/Tuesday, write something generated by the prompt (prose/poetry/long/short/fiction/nonfiction), read, critique, whatever ...  You have all week to think about what you want to write (or not).

    What a great prompt and what a terrific story told in such few words. I'm not sure I could do any better (but I'm sure gonna try).

    A very frugal story indeed as it just tells it as it was :-).

      Windsmoke: I loved it when I found it, but it does only tell a fraction of the story.

    I do like it when I'm shown something in my city I've never seen before ... I'll have to go out exploring at lunchtime!

      Birdie: I agree. Over the next few days I am hoping that a variety of bloggers will put forward their take on it, but I would like to know more about the real story as well.
