Message on a Postcard

The journey here was great,
and although the flight was late,
we tried hard not to mind
when the coach left us behind.

This is quite a fine resort
but we never really thought
that we’d have to share our room
with another bride and groom.

Well, the dining room is fine
but they really crossed the line,
when they served us ostrich neck.
I really couldn’t eat a speck.

On the beach there’s plenty room
since that awful thunderstorm.
And the rain is not abating
which is why we’re here just waiting
for the earliest flight home
to Manchester Aerodrome.

Glad you’re not here.
