'the rain in Spain'
no habla ingles
which doesn't really matter
it's still soaking wet.
but the weather seems mild to
this northern child
who was brought up
in
six feet of snow.
"Northern child"
ha
I'm a bit old to be that
but
I've still got dear Teddy with
his battered flat cap
So
it's what's in the heart
that makes one an age
I've got jelly tots
in mine.
