THE SIX-STITCHER Frank Daniel – 1998

We had a brand new six stitcher,
it was shiny, red and hard.
Dad saw us playing with it
as he walked across the yard.
''Where'd ya get that from?''
came his inquisitive remark.
''No problem Dad! we found it
in the long grass at the park.''
''Was it lost'' he then enquired
with a hint of turning sour.
''Bloody oath!'' Young Jim replied,
''They were searching for it near an hour!''

Hey Frank (or Joe)

Is there a new team on the pitch, been watching most of the summer and didn’t see too many go over the fence.

Trish
