WHAT WILL BE-(6 NATIONS RUGBY)

(Rugby, a game for hooligans, played by Gentlemen)

Scotland promises
delivers so little

Wales lacks passion
results now trickle

Ireland with charm
muscles a-twinkle

Italy tricky unleashed
a miracle

England brooding
titans able

France brilliant
enfant terrible

Italy with historical score
the northern game's not glam
beauty salon or abattoir?
France still have the
Une
Deux
Trois!
A french grand slam?

(Sacre bleu!)

Milleniuim Stadium-
soap opera
life on the by-pass
by players with the
miss-pass!

Stade de France-
the battleground
a second year where
Agincourt is played
with a
Rugby ball!

O DEAREST ELLS...

...this poem smells of success, you've raised your hem; which's a bit of a shame as poor old Ephraim won't probably now get a pm! xxx. Love, Eph.
