Ringing In the Changes

Do come to our symposia , they’re sure to be such fun. First topic for discussion will be campanology. Newcomers will be shown the ropes and methodology. The vicar is providing tea and scones for everyone. Bell ringing is an ideal form of mental stimulation And for those ladies worried about drooping batwing flab It tones the biceps within weeks, they'll soon be looking fab And hearts will be uplifted by sweet tintinnabulation. I hope to have convinced you that the benefits are clear Of taking up a hobby which holds such euphonic pleasure; A family-friendly pastime for those wintry hours of leisure. Ring out the old, ring in the new in this forthcoming year! 14/09/18 ' Symposia Poetry Contest' Sponsored by: Julia Ward
