Wales

WALES


Lived  in Wales once for little over  a  year
Can’t say I enjoyed it  - Welsh people  were *****.

They answered in Cymraig if I spoke English to them;   *
Tried a  little Cym  -  they responded with phlegm.

Harps and daffodils was their idea of fun, 
And they never noticed the absence of daily sun.

(Rained  ‘most every day - made my feet  squelch)
What’s wrong with Wales  is the Welsh

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 

Note

The Celtic language spoken by many people in Wales                                       
                is  called  Cymraig   (pronounced  coom - ra - eeg )
