Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night .

It's a good thing I didn't take my hockey teacher's words to heart,  she said I reminded her of an absent-minded professor!

Rolling them into little balls and flicking them at his dad.

 

Poetry I learnt at school , but not by the teachers.

Daddy bought a big steel cow

We milked it with a spanner

the milk came out in shilling cans 

the little ones a tanner.

 

In memory of the milk carton machine outside the Express Dairy on Broadfield Rd.

may you rust in peace 🤣

We have an ode to Jonny Longprong in "Padders Bar"

 

There was a young man from Kent,

Whose rod was so long it bent,

So to save himself trouble,

He bent it in double,

And instead of coming-he went.

I always wondered how that cow got up to the first floor and into the window. I had an uncle who worked there, I should have asked him.

Ok, technically not a poem, but talking to one of those new breed of Sheff U fans t'other day brought back memories of an old chant heard from the terraces, circa a long time ago 

 

(Please feel free to sing along)

 

If you go down to the Lane today,

you're sure of a big surprise

if you go down to the lane today,

you'll never believe your eyes

coz Jeremy the Sugar puff bear has bought new boots

& Cropped his hair

& Gone to join the Shoreham Skinheads 

 

🎵 NA NAN A NA NA

NA NAN A NA NA

NA NA NA NA 

Na nan a na na 🎵

Derek the centre forward

Had a lot of bright red hair

And if you ever saw him

You would even have to stare

 

All of the other players

Din't think he could play

So they said to Derek

Tha'll have to wait for another day

 

Then one rainy afternoon

t'manager came to say

Deerek with your hair aflame

You can play in the Barnsley game

 

The 'ow t'supporters loved him

And they shouted out with glee

Derek the centre forward

You'll go down in hist or ee!

 

(or summat like that)
