Anticipation...

There’s a stir in the air,

a shuffle in the leaves

There’s wind in our hair

and creaking in the eaves

There’s rain on the roads

and puddles for our shoes

But everything’s stopped. 

Have you heard the news?

There’s a whisper in the town,

a small clear voice

There’s the sound of a song,

with girls and boys

There’s a big purple billboard,

there’s a script, everything

There’s swashbuckling, fire,

and a very rich king

There’s a love interest,

some Pirates, a very bad Rat

A Fairy, some kiddies

and a Dancing Cat

The pace is upbeat,

not long til the show

There’s chaos ahead

(for those in the know)

There’s lines to be learned,

outfits to choose

Songs to be sung

and no time to lose

Fireworks to be lit,

Sets to be made,

Christmas lights switches,

joining the parade

There’s a shuffle in the leaves,

a stir in the air

It’s Fleet’s first ever Panto!

Will You be there?
