THE EASTER SHOW
Icky sticky sugar sickly
Sticks of fluffy stuff
On a stick or in a bag
Pink green puffy fluff
Disappearing in thin air
Before you had enough
Icky sticky sugar sickly
Sticky puffs of fluff
Bags and bags of Bertie Beetles
Melty chocolate hands
Sticky lollies, lots of folly
Rows of show bag stands
Bags of tricks and plastic knick-knacks
Bags of strings and strands
Pencils, rubbers, rulers, others
Coloured rubber bands
Spinning turning stomach churning
Whirling whizzing ride
Colours glaring, music blaring
Spin and dip and slide
Bump ‘em, thump ‘em, crash ‘em dodgem
Smashing side to side
Grand finale, side show alley
‘Step up, step inside’
Grand pavilion, fifty million
Cows and goats and sheep
Country smelling, children yelling
Ducklings fast asleep
Final judging, some begrudging
Ribbons there to keep
Losers weeping, keepers sweeping
Droppings in a heap
