A Strong Wind Blew

A strong wind blew and the whole town knew This storm intended trouble A crashing sound upon the ground My chimney stack was rubble The daffs by the highways were all growing sideways And I heard my gardener cry Because he had never and neither had I Seen a greenhouse fly And then there were screams, the vicar it seems Thought he was Mary Poppins His brolly went down - so did he with a frown Preceded by his droppings I, by golly, clung to my brolly And I soared like an eagle And then I saw the vicar bounce Off Westminster Cathedral Fences were flattened all over the town And many trees were down A wheelie bin rolled up the street And past the rose and crown And then the wind dropped My brolly flight stopped And I had to face a new truth My landing had led Straight into my bed It seemed I would need a new roof
