Kings pond, a quiet retreat,
With wildlife ducks and swans,
where lovers often meet.
To us all it belongs
Home of Mid hants railway,
Watercress soup; those steam
trains whistling away.
A steam enthusiasts dream.
Lavender fields close by,
Jane Austen’s library,
And country walks to try.
But if you feel weary
Just rest a little while
In some cosy cafe
Where the waitresses smile
As they serve you latte
There’s just so much to see,
And there are lots of clubs
such a good place to be,
not to mention the pubs
Perhaps you’re a film fan,
The Palace cinema
can be part of your plan.
See your favourite screen star
Where you enter the dream
An imaginary world,
through that magical screen
Where the stories unfold.
And then when the days done
Go back home to your bed
And be glad for the fun
For you’re a long time dead.
