Counties

(2 stories)

Things were now grave
Clouds over Land of Dave
No gymkhanas
For little Petunia's
No smile just great big frown
Village pub now closed
Even if the golf club bar
Staying surreptitiously open
Such a time of famine
When darkness came to town
Home Counties into lockdown

John was.the welly chucking champion
Down the county show
He threw a pair of wellies
Boy you should have seen them go

John was the welly chucking champion
He was never in defeat
Till the day he was disqualified
For throwing two left feet
