P. 19
Faster and faster down the hill he ran
Past 37 and 39’s van.
Past Roger’s Rekord – that was tight –
“Sorry I hit you and broke your light.”
Curtains are drawn and people are waving
Left hand down – keep off the paving –
Oh, what fun as I fly along,
Wave to Grandpa at 41.
Are Nicola and Andrew tucked up in bed?
Wake them and dress them and give them
some bread.
Once I am clear of all these trucks
They can come to the park
and feed the ducks.
Past 43, 45, 47,
Cecil didn’t know it
But he was heading for heaven.
Now at the bottom of the hill
There runs a main road,
So Cecil checked again
In his Highway Code.
