Now is everybody ready

Are you sitting comfortably

I shall begin to take you on a journey of my childhood T.V

On afternoons & weekends happily sat cross legged on the floor

I'd watch as that playhouse appeared with windows & a door

The Arch, Square or Circle, now which window will it be

I'd try to figure out & then I'd shout my answers out with glee

Jemima, Humpty, Big & Little Ted helped me learn things through fun play

With stories, songs and games to keep me entertained each day

Then over all the streets & houses Rainbow came shining bright

Bungle, George & Zippy were always such a funny sight

They'd always get into squabbles always doing something wrong

Geoffrey would come sort them out, Rod, Jane & Freddy would sing a song

Time for Jackanory & stories that gave me a love for books

Dahl, Carol & Andersen to so many wondrous worlds they took

The brilliant Sesame Street taught numbers, letters and more besides

Wished for cuddles from Cookie & Elmo & Snuffaluffagus rides!

This was just a little taster of my childhood shows there's more

Even though I'm a grown up now the little child in me still adores!
