NFF Day 3 - Sunday

I still have at least one Easter egg left. Poets Breakfast poem is below. This one got a good response.

Todays hit is the Playford dancing (think English period drama on TV, a lot of walking around holding hands and looking at one another.) My lack of any semblance of coordination usually precludes any competent dancing but even I can manage this.

Illegal Immigrants
Like so many had before them
By sea they smuggled in

little food in the container
half starved but still alive

When illegal and unwanted
They arrived upon our shore

The government it was paniced
It was clear it had to act

To address the rising threat
New laws they did enact

When illegal and unwanted
They arrived upon our shore

Desperation to settle
Marked their early days

The new land will accept them
Despite their foreign ways.

When illegal and unwanted
They arrived upon our shore

The government moved swiftly
The public on its side

The media it was utilised
To keep the anger high

Report any sightings
That was what we’re told

To prevent this new invasion
From ever taking hold

Now they have arrived
Illegal and unwanted on our shore

The message it was simple
We can not accept their presence

Through townships and through country
We must stop the fire ant menace.
