As a child
I was meek and mild
But we used to play in the triggery!

It was at the end of our road
called Peacock Avenue,
Which was tree lined and really nice!
And we used to live right next to the dead centre, The cemetery

We’d bring lotsa pressys back for Mum
Like a duck and ducklings
A newt
A rather large dragon fly
Various cats
Until she said no more

She’d say take that back now
In a bit of a fluster
We didn’t know
she was really not that keen on nature!
