Poem
Raining cats and dogs, we didn’t want to get wet through We dashed to the bus stop, to shelter as you do There we huddled under the shelter as a cosy retreat But a storm was brewing right under our feet A lady held her umbrella up to protect her head It was dry under the shelter but still she went ahead She was twirling it round and poked a man in the eye He wasn’t going to let this selfish action pass him by He asked her very nicely to put the umbrella down She got VERY irate and started to shout and frown Soon expletives were flying- we moved out of the way She cursed in Italian, we could understand what she did say Umbrellas started flying- it turned into quite a fight They were whacking each other with all their might Suddenly a huge wave broke from the sea shore We jumped out of the way to avoid any more But the fight it continued and spilled on to the street The words that were flying I could never repeat! It was such a spectacle, everyone was staring The foul mouth woman retreated but continued swearing All she needed to have done was put her umbrella down Sadly in reality she became the talk of the town. A true event which happened on 1st November 2nd November 2015
