Are we all going looney,
Or is it only me,
When shopping at the market,
Some peculiar sights I see.
Colourful people,
Mingling in the crowd
Costermongers shouting,
Way too loud.
Toddlers crying,
While sitting in a trolley,
Parents pacify them,
With a dummy or a lolly.
Someone singing,
Or playing the guitar,
And bells ringing,
Somewhere from afar.
Tramp's begging,
To buy a loaf of bread.
A dog lies in the gutter,
Bedraggled and dead.
Tattooed teenagers,
And adults too,
Why do they need to do this?
I don't know, do you?
Dreadlocks on many,
Fellows and girls,
Whatever happened,
To quiffs and curls.
Women wearing pants,
And men in dresses,
Individuality and equality,
That is what they hope this expresses.
There is life in a busy market,
A pulsation all can feel and see,
If it sounds like madness.
Madness is good enough for me.

Within my breast a promise of earth splendor
Jovial sapphire lake sheer blackness cliffs
Kempt, sights amid whispers Spirit renders
Lithe shadows of spike pines manifest quiffs
Meek pink aurora waning like a thief
Neighboring Big Dippers pouring , springs scars
Operatic skies speckled stars relief
Picturesque Moon rises as well as Mars
Quelled waft and sounds blows through the hours of night
Reflective flow of spring beside banks ends
Sacred of God's earth splendor faintly light
Thrilling sublime sights and whispers descends
Unhurried choices amongst no worries
Venturesome challenges though tangled miles
Whimsical splendor rich untold journeys
Xanthous uniform through seasonal smiles

Rock n roll was started by four guys from across the pond, there was Jerry, Johnny, Carl and a hep cat named Elvis
and later on the Big O. rock n roll was born. Some say it would not last, some say it,s just a fad, a phase people
were going through.but how wrong they were.
Rock n roll is here to stay. Telecaster Fender and Gretsch as well, all played a rockin beat to which we could move our feet.
Teddy boys with their crapes and drapes quiffs and da,s looking so tidy and smart. The Rockabillys as well in their jeans
tee shirts and leather jackets, also with quiffs side burns and Da,s.
One guitar,one drum and one double base and you have a rock a billy band, music that lives on for ever through out
this fine land as you will discover its still very much in demand, The music of Gene, Eddy and Elvis is far from dead.
its stronger than ever its got to be said
Blue sued shoes, love me tender all played so beautiful on a gretsch or fender a sound so sweet and fine that will blow your
mind so my friend to finally say Rock N Roll is not dead hooray.
