The District Line : Wimbledon – Edgware Road

I saw Andy Murray triumph at the All England club at Wimbledon,

My beloved greyhound won the race at the stadium at Wimbledon Park,

I travelled to Putney Bridge and took a lovely walk by the Thames Path,

I avoid Chelsea fans at Fulham Broadway especially after dark.

I visited Emmeline Pankhurst’s grave at West Brompton’s Brompton Cemetery,

I stayed in the Millennium Gloucester, by Gloucester Road and for a while lived like a queen,

I walked through Kensington Gardens and saw Peter Pan via High Street Kensington,

I travelled to Notting Hill Gate to dance at the carnival, the finest one in Europe ever seen.

Past Bayswater Road, then to Edgware Road,

The Wimbledon section of the District Line finally draws to a halt,

A section that holds a close place in my heart,

With it I cannot find any fault.
