Each one betting a fiver!
Their competitiveness...

Like clusters of...

It buries mysterious human track mole

the sun smiled on the people 
the rains communed peacefully with thunderstorms
Erin flowed with palm wine and palm oil, 
And her children drank to their fill

Featured in the daily for which we pay

They had an unseen radiant gleam
And resembled the ones I had in my dream
In my garden they happened...

Some children growing up in towns,
    Wear sallow faces, sullen frowns.
    Streetwise urchins, Jack the lads,

Folks who just do not seem to know,
What life is really all about,
They just go on their prescribed route.

Whose name shall remain

And hampered his dutiful reign
