Blackpool Memories
*********************

Kiss me quick hats, sandy dunes, Double cornets, red balloons, Burgers! onions! candy floss! people drunken, that`s their loss. Puffing nicely, kids all fed, seagulls flying overhead. Bikers racing, donkeys led, steely eyes from ferris dread. Someone bumps me, I see red! “told you twice kids. no “let it go” says uncle Ted. Fish, chips, vinegar, buttered bread, I said!” Tower and illuminations in my head. Oh jeeze,we`ve lost our grandpa Fred. Argh! sand in eyes now, feet like lead. Safe journey home, and back to bed…
