A poem for my husband's 40th birthday. We had left a couple of African drums in the UK as we were not allowed to bring them to Australia with the skins on. So for Alex's birthday, 4 months after we arrived here, I got him a new African drum with money from family in the UK.
They sent me some money
Instructions to buy
Something you’d like
I really did try
I added it up
It totalled some bucks
And in return for this task
I deserve several thank you’s from our family in England.
With money from Gerry
And Margaret too,
Melinda and Paul
To name but a few
Heide and Hannah
Andrea and Matt
Jonathan and Hugo
And possibly the cat
So with love from your family
And especially you mum
We hope you enjoy
Whacking your drum!
