there was a lot of people
in town to-day
as the markets are always
held on Sunday
towns folk were scurrying around
looking for this and that
Mr Johnson was lucky enough
to pick up a terry toweling hat
the lady who lives
at the end of Bowline Street
bought floral covers
to put on her kitchen seats
the local vicar and his wife
took home three black hens
they left at around
a quarter past ten
Mrs McLean the markets organizer
made scone and tea
she asked me to join her
under the elm trees
there were people at the market
I hadn't seen in a while
twas very nice
to catch a glimpse of their smiles
perfect weather prevailed
throughout the day
everyone had plenty
of money to array
the markets are a highlight
in our hamlet
we're looking forward
to the next one, you bet!
