 the gypsy poet

olden days at poole


Louie foot the gypsy rode an  old Ford T
she was a real coolest lady you ever did see
she gave lifts to the clan through rossmore steep hills n lanes
services through  alder hills to upon hill n back again

Ted Sherwood was the boxing king
he was a true preacher diddy coy
he won so many lonsdale belts
first won coconuts at Poole fair shies n gave foes a black eye

Mrs bonham Christie was a sad recluse
on brownsea island shores
she had a wicked gun they said
she fired it all twelve bore

lord and lady wimborne lived at canford school
the amity was a flea pit in the old town of Poole
Poole had two white hearts plus a pub with no name
whilst the grasshoppers danced opposite Bournemouth's fast lane

our trousers were short then and our legs were so sore
though the gentry were rich landowners and we were so poor
Poole had a promenade amidst of the quay
where the sailors all danced their nights on the spree
