Olive, she's not very pretty
But, my, she's frightfully witty

But also a nice cup of tea
Earl Grey or “Monkey” tea for me
With lemon, or not
As long as it’s hot
Beneath the old apple tree.

Nicole was a lady from France
Who can-canned, when she had the chance

Nicole was a lady from France
Who can-canned, when she had the chance
She high kicked her way

Who can-canned, when she had the chance
She high kicked her way
To "The Dock of the Bay"

Who can-canned, when she had the chance
She high-kicked her way
To "The Dock of the Bay"

Did this chap Lance, know how to prance?
Could he Paso Doble perchance?
A quick cha cha cha
Glared at by mama,
Who viewed Nicole's suitors askance.

I love walking down by the shore,
And hearing the ocean's full roar
The call of the gulls

Salti Mon 26-Jun-23 12:22:13

I love walking down by the shore,
And hearing the ocean's full roar
The call of the gulls
Chains clanking on hulls

Mollygo Mon 26-Jun-23 12:24:57

I love walking down by the shore,
And hearing the ocean's full roar
The call of the gulls
Chains clanking on hulls
Tomorrow I’ll go back for more

It’s Sports Day, but look at that sky!
I'm praying it's going to stay dry,
The egg and spoon race
Is off at a pace

It’s Sports Day, but look at that sky!
I'm praying it's going to stay dry,
The egg and spoon race
Is off at a pace
I’d like to join in but I’m shy

Shot put and discus is my thing

Shot put and discus is my thing
I tried that - I’m now in a sling
A javelin next
My muscles are flexed
But my squint let me down, I think

It winged across the air, askew

It winged across the air, askew
Towards the worried crowd it flew

Mollygo Thu 29-Jun-23 09:42:14

It winged across the air, askew
Towards the worried crowd it flew
It dropped 3 foot short

Towards the worried crowd it flew
It dropped 3 foot short
I hoped it would thwart
