midsummer day pours
strawberry moon juice
drenches tense trenches
spring’s offensive flourish spent
leaves droop drip tremble trepid
today I saw in Borehamwood
a certain cure for summer flood

midsummer day pours
strawberry moon juice
drenches tense trenches
spring’s offensive flourish spent
leaves droop drip tremble trepid
today I saw in Borehamwood
a certain cure for summer flood
On midsummer’s day
In nineteen seventy six
Acting goatishly
During the heatwave
We did a rain-dance
Little did we know
What would come to pass
As we rolled in dry dog pooh
On biscuit brown
municipal grass
