Stratford-upon-Avon
An afternoon in Stratford with family all around
There beneath a leafy tree sitting on the ground.
With vittles from the Dirty Duck, our picnic had begun
While watching swans on Avon in the shining sun.
Lots of friendly banter with each loved relation
Meeting up in relish after being in isolation.
Of course with social distancing we could not embrace
During this pandemic it’s not the time or place.
Soaking in the atmosphere of the bard’s home town
With lots of star struck lovers pacing up and down.
I had my days of courtship walking round this place
Watching plays performed for us with elegance and grace.
Then we brought our children to relish every day
That they could learn of Shakespeare by watching every play.
They’ll pass it on to their kids this love of the bard.
This town beside the Avon doesn’t make it hard!
