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 )
