For more information contact Vicky vlinzell@hotmail.com Stapleford has a secret, it would really like to share, It hosts an amazing weekend, When everybody’s there. All the village pulls together enjoying all the work and fun, Creating lasting friendships since the event first began Each day is packed with things to do For every walk of life, Horticulturists have their moment to exhibit all they’ve grown, See the pride on their face as they win prizes for what they’ve sown. There, children can play in safety, with bouncy castles and the like, They even have a disco or may prefer to ride their bike. The more genteel can watch the cricket, Relaxing on the green, Sipping Pimm’s in the sunshine, Discussing what they’ve seen. The evenings just get better, As bands play into the night. The music is quite amazing, We seem to have it right. There’s wholesome food to enjoy, Throughout the fun filled night To excite the taste buds, as it’s consumed with sheer delight. Lots of singing and excitement, As they indulge in fine wine and beers, Lovers get more romantic, Whispering sweet nothings, In each other’s ears Then as the evening draws gradually to a close, The children fade and start to doze. Our community seems a little warmer, As we say goodbye to our new found friends, The village has had a great time, But unfortunately it has to end By Michael Gatward 2019 |
