Ole' Merry England

She's Off To Merry England
Where the blue bell wood goes wild
Where all the lad and lass speak a funny style!
Where cheerio means nothing but, "Hey how ya do?"
And bobbies are the real police watchin over you 
Wave your hand, blow your nose, stand around awhile  
The Palace Guards are stiff and never known to smile. 
Good old Merry England! It's fun for all to see
Climb aboard, take a plane, grab a trip with me!

A long love affair with England but I never got there. Scotland, Ireland but never England. Descriptive poem.

I just loved what you told me about Kokopelli , your boat, let me read this now. Is this one for fun vacation? I sure wish I could go there!! I was in London many years ago but did not get to see much else. Very nice!
