O' dear, what a to do
Longer than your average queue
Is it that new telephone thing?
Hardly, there is no-one to ring
Waiting for the sale, to buy a new hat
Doesn’t look like any need of that
The Queen’s coronation on a TV set
If you’re at the back, that’s not a good bet
Perhaps the day the King came to town
That is one high street he won’t get down
What then is the point of it all?
Val is selling from her boot stall
...

| Will we see the King, Daddy?
Aren’t I tall up here?
Can I stay on your shoulders?
Is that him over there?
They say the war is over
Is it really true?
What is a war, Daddy?
Next time, can I come with you?
Hush child, hold your peace
You know not what you say
War was a horrid thing
But now it’s gone away
And, yes, we’ll see the King
The Queen and Princesses too
I’ll keep you on my shoulders
But be good, for they’ll see you

| Both are excellent, Rose & Steve. When everyone has posted their poem, I'll chose the one nearest to what is actually happening. You can enter more than one poem.  _________________ Regards Val |

| O M G I got up early
to try and be first in the queue
I have a list as long as my arm
whatever can I do?
Just where has everyone come from
I know it is a sale
they must have received their leaflet
Also last week in the mail
They haven't even opened the doors
And just look at all those folk
I do know that money is tight
But this is beyond a joke
Next year I won't even bother
I will order via the phone
I won't come to the NEXT sale again
I will just stay at home. _________________   |

| yes I always remember that day
When Lloyd George came into town
People had travelled far and near
because he was so renown
he didn't have to travel far
for he also lives in Wales
Yet he came and he delivered
Such wonderful tales
The crowds silent and still did listen
And people stood on building to see
good job the rain kept off long enough
for we were there till long after tea
That Lloyd George was such a good orator
Most folk so pleased he was in charge
and guess what my father told me
That he actually knew Lloyd George

| I'll give you all a clue, it was a Spring festival. Circa 1937, but it still happens today. _________________ Regards Val |

| I've sent you a pm, Doreen. I think it will be fine to post your picture, then judge it when you come back. I'm sure lots of people on here will be busy over the Christmas period so to leave the judging until mid January is OK by me. Unless Admin have objections to this that is?  _________________ Regards Val |
