Here is a poem especially written and performed for my book launch of Girl’s Got Rhythm by Catherine Crosswell ~ it raised many a smile :)

By Catherine Crosswell

Miss Polly
had a dolly
with a lolly
and a brolly
she did walk her border collie
with best friends Molly and Holly.
They did find a wayward trolley
and by golly it was jolly
so they decided all to climb inside
WHEEEEEEeeeee
there were no brakes to end their folly
and after a kerb to kerb volley
all sadly ended up in a ditch
feeling oh so melancholy
But mainly massive Wallies.

Launch day! There it was … gone!

It’s launch day! At least, it was when I first put this post up! Now it’s been and gone and we had a great time, the hub got me a cake with the book cover (marvellous) and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.  Many, many thanks to everyone who performed and to all my guests ~ it really was a special night ~ there’s a slideshow of the photos taken by Geoff at the base of this blog.

So, for those of you who don’t know what this is all about, Girl’s Got Rhythm, my debut poetry collection, is available on Kindle and if you’d like a paperback version you can get one if you’re in the USA from Lulu ~ if you’re in the UK just let me know and I’ll send you a copy £5 plus p&p. The paperback will become available via Amazon in a few weeks.

The cake!
