Theme ' NOT AT THE RACES'

Ye won't be at the races,
but being put thru the paces
At a Baffle 'outatown'
The place of Raftery's renown.

Hats, flags and rosettes
Just like the real thing
And no tent either
But a great parade ring.

And a winners enclosure
but no three card trick
And plenty poems
for Michael to pick.

Comic songs and friendly faces
And a lot cheaper than a day at the races
Get writing today, we need a full card
Might even take bets on the winning bard.

Stephen Shields and Anne Marie Kennedy have organised the next Baffle reading.

It would be really helpful if poets register with Anne Marie or Stephen on or before Thursday 29th, so you will be included in the 'race card' on the night. ---------- So get writing --------
