home of the rich















 





My Love By Sea













SultryRose's Signatures
















it was the home of Brian crutcher
the England speedway star
it was where Freddie mills did boxing
where we all took goldfish home in a jar

there were so many stalls there
upon those fairground rides
where the gypsies sold the heather
where the boats came in upon the tide

across the seas of sandbanks
where harry redknapp lived
not far from rogers transport
the home of uncle Sid

the Fancy's lived in newtown
the brixeys and the does
where the alder trees were plentiful
they kept us on our toes

john Lennon's auntie lived there
max bygraves had his fame
with the hills of purbeck in our sights
we will never be the same

cockleshell heroes were made there
the Poole pottery was so proud
with streets of narrow alleys
grackles in the crowds

tony Blackburn was the DJ
his dad was our doctor too
the quays old bridge is famous
from Poole to Waterloo

the pubs there are so plentiful
there's ten on every street
those parkstone folk are so friendly
they say how do to everyone they meet
