Thirteen degrees? No, Thirty-One!
At last,
our summer has begun
As the sun
shines, our mood soars …
Like butterflies,
we flit outdoors!
The school
year totters to its end
Rue Neuve
invites us all to spend!
In terms of
clothes, I am past caring
But let’s
give my shorts an airing!
The ‘brocante’
in Rue Middelbourg
Did a
roaring trade I heard;
Meeting street
friends is a pleasure
Converting
one man’s trash to treasure!
The neighbours
congregate this week
In our leafy,
quiet retreat
To hear the
Council’s news and views
On which we
comment; what’s to lose?
A friendly
atmosphere prevails;
Olivier’s* humour never fails
Where compromise
is absolute
To keep the
locals in the loop!
