Falmouth & Royal Greenwich Tall Ships Regatta 2014 Arts Project with Artist in Residence John DyerCITY FUN!!!!!!
Raging ships crashing through the battered gates,
Illuminating fireworks lighting up the night sky,
Pink, purple, yellow, orange and blue,
Grumpy people missing out on all the fun,
At the harbour boats rushing out,
The bright blue sea full of creatures,
Take part in the fun,
A band performing lively fun songs.

The Tall Ships!
I was expecting a lovely walk in town,
When suddenly I heard a booming sound,
I looked up high and what did I see?
Some fireworks shining beautifully,
I saw some dancing and colours flash,
I knew I needed to make a dash.
People were pushing, shoving, surging,
Trying to get a glimpse, of THE TALL SHIPS!
So that’s why there were fireworks, that’s why there were dancing,
That’s why there were colours flashing.
I ran down the quay to join in the fun,
And celebrate with everyone!
There was one particular ship I saw,
With red sails and a yellow door.
The sea was calm not a wave to be seen,
The sailors looked ever so keen.
The cats and dogs were going crazy!
They made me feel quite hazy.
Soon the proper firework show started,
With a gold one that sparkled and glittered,
It shone and shimmered.
After that it was time to go home,
And leave the dogs and cats alone.
I expected a lovely walk in town,
But turned out I didn’t frown!
Eventually I tiptoed back,
And stood on a twig that made a crack,
I wandered sleepily up the stairs that were steep,
With eyes so tired they couldn’t even peep.
I gazed out into the endless sky,
And saw some colourful birds with patterned wings that helped them fly,
I looked down again onto the bay,
As rainbow fireworks danced the night away.
