ARCHERY CLASSES

ARCHERY CLASSES

 

‘Archery classes’ said the sign on the door

Sounds good I thought – I’d not tried it before.

So plucking up courage I enquired therein

And asked how much and when could I begin.

‘If you’ve got the time and feel prepared

You can start right now’ said the concierge.

‘You’re bound to enjoy it that’s for sure

just follow the arrows on the floor’.

So off I went and found the room

Where every day from 10 till noon

Mr Fletcher’s class begins

And Mr Fletcher pulls the strings

But If I were the truth to tell

I’d have to admit I didn’t do well

Sadly somehow I failed to deliver

Which left me exhausted and all aquiver.

So feeling strung up I left the class

And decided I’d give the classes a pass.

    Oh lol, good write M.
    Will you try Miss Berles' classes on 'The hunt for missing syllables' or 'Archaic syllables dating back to 3000BC'?!

    • Michael Edwards

      Went on a date with a girl from 3000BC and it was a nightmare - so its no more carbon dating for me - now there has to a poem here about this.
