Palace of Delights

As a young boy I can still remember clearly seeing
the line of glass jars filled with magnificent sweet things
amongst the stack of Airfix models were coloured packets of stamps
to transport me away to more exotic climes
Wrapping paper packages & cards of many colours
Greetings from your nearest dearest kin
Rubber bouncing balls & pots of plastic snakes & spiders to frighten
baby brothers out their skin
Welcome to the Palace of Delights
everything you wanted & more.
Welcome to the Palace of Delights
the real World is stopped by the door
Scouring pads & Ajax powder
Kitchen knives & forks
Paper plates, balloons & silver clowns
Sellotape, elastic bands, pencils with a bright red stripe
the most magical place in town
Welcome to the Palace of Delights
everything you wanted & more.
Welcome to the Palace of Delights
the real World is stopped by the door
Cowboy hats & holstered six guns,
Man from U.N.C.L.E. bubble cards
As Collectors we all had the set
A paperback on training budgies complete with offered bell & mirror
Hung by 'wanted' postcards & fishing nets
Welcome to the Palace of Delights
everything you wanted & more.
Welcome to the Palace of Delights
the real World is stopped by the door
