POETRY

ON HOLIDAY IN DEVON

A COBBERLY, WOBBERLY TALE

 In Clovelly, North Devon

It costs four pounds per person

To walk down that cobberly, hobbly, knobbly, lobberly, wobbly street

But when you do finally arrive at the bottom

A sight of such breathtaking beauty greets

That all thought of payment is quickly forgotten

Though it did occur to me, how are we going to get up again?

 

IT MUST BE LIKE THE FORTH BRIDGE

 

I would imagine you'd be kept quite busy

If you were a painter and decorator in Sidmouth

With their preference for painting buildings in bright pastel shades

And an abundance of seagulls with bad toilet habits

 

BEAUTIFUL SIDMOUTH

 

Oh to be in beautiful Sidmouth

On a glorious summers day

To sit and watch the waves crashing onto a pebbly beach

Can be spoilt rather, if you happen to fall within reach

Of a bombarding seagull
