72 Miles From The Sea

I have many questions

And no answer in the records

Such as, why isn't palindrome

Spelt the same way backwards?

In the C4 Newsroom

Just ahead of the action

The producer announces

“Lights Camera Fiction”

Sights, sounds, smells, taste, and touch

It’s funny the things that cause the memories to arise

When all of a sudden memory of my sister flood back

It’s Cilla Black, Port and Lemon and Devon Skies

Of all the ages of history

Historian will attest

That the bronze age

Was the third best

Before he became a conqueror

William of Normandy

Was just known as William the.

My wife wanted the heating on in september

But I didn’t want it on until at least october

In our house its known simply as cold war-fare

I am a connoisseur

Of all types of wine

Albeit self-taught

And have a Radio channel

About fortified wines

It’s called, Talks Port
