Memory Lane, I remember it well
Many a time I've had, under its spell
Think of old wotsisname, you know the one
He had those sweet virgins all by the ton.
Then there was thingme with big shiny nose
He drank pints of lager til comatose.
Ada, a redhead, with spots on her bum
How I knew that I guess I'll keep me schtum.
Charley was handsome but HE loved the blokes
Kept it quiet not to upset the folks
Spent all our money in Milk Bars and caffs
No knives or bashings and we had our laughs.
Old men and old women meet now and then,
Tripping on zimmers and sticks, do ye ken?
Still fresh as a daisy some of those thoughts,
As we sup tea, with our lemon zest tortes.
Please tell me what you think

Love your little trip down memory lane. Am I invited to tea?

Love the manner in which you write. Lots of color for us to soak in as if we were there! The accent and the rhyme make it even more enjoyable.

Loved it mate!
