Hi
Found this poem in Blackie's Girls' Annual 1933 and thought some of the more sensitive of our troop would enjoy a touch of nostalgia from a distant past.
If anything it confirms nothing really changes.
Enjoy, hope it brings a smile.
Sharon

Hi Sharon
As I read it I could just imagine you reciting it, with your totally appropriate accent for the poem . Just right!
