2. Read the poem carefully and answer the following questions: (6)

The last time the electricity failed,

we watched through the window in settling dusk

as vans rumbled into the field next door

and workers in yellow tunics gathered by

the telegraph pole like pilgrims. Floodlights,

like artificial moons, cast the grass in a white sheen. One worker shimmied up, others

rapt beneath, mumbling what looked like prayers.

No sudden blaze, but as they pulled away

we felt the certainty of returning light.

Back in Yorkshire, during the strikes,

Power cuts were balanced around districts.

With no television, we were forced

to talk to each other, while we played

Scrabble in the glow of candles, ignoring shadows

flickering around us, and when light

returned everything to its proper place

I ran to the window to watch

the small miracle of darkness

as it took over the estate below us​
