​“Night of Celebration”

Build me a house from anything you like
Light up my life with your helping hand
Throw me that lifeline like I knew you would
And help me back to this safe land

There’s a train ready for all you souls
All you have to do is get on board
For everyone from here to Trenchtown
All we have to do is praise the Lord

Singing for your happiness
Wishing you the best of days
Singing for life ahead
Generous in so many ways

Such beauty at the piano
The blues so strong in your gentle hands
You sing from the heart once again
And spirit us away to foreign lands

We laughed at the wordplay
Performing with the simple ukulele
You raised our spirits with such humour
Delivering your songs so feyly

And once again from the heart
Gentle talent will shine through
You envelop us with your every breath
And enchant is all with your songs anew . . .

Jason, poet, May 2023

​It’s easy to do, childhood living
Spent a brief way from you
It’s easy to see rivers flowing by
We are joined in the deep, dark blue

The tale of the tapestries it does bind us
Weaving through life’s river of love
We created this emotional fabric to clothe us
Then take flight like the branch carrying dove

Through all the shades of any colour you like
We explore the space with all our love
Through time we play and sing all night
We take life from the very light above

Singing tales from the London riverside
Urban poetry cuts deep into the stones
Delivered directly with a stark honesty
Working class hero to his very bones

Jason, poet, April 2023

Thank you to Simon Watt, Lance, CJ Martin, David Dyke, Lisa & Jason, Chris Mansell, Brenda, Frank, Helga, Laura, Heather, Paula, Alexis McGloan, John Stephens, Nelson King, Terry Lees and Mark, for all their fabulous performances.
