Musicals

In a field of crowding buttercups
shuttered against the rain
she floats like Mary Poppins
forgot the plain in Spain.

For though the hills may rise and sing
her favourite things go spare
and carousels go spinning round
so fair and unaware.

They say the music man was here
umbrella to the fore
he danced a lot like Oliver
and then went off to war.

Perhaps I speak of simpler times
I’ve lost them all somehow
and now our technicolor casts
took long ago their bow.
