Come one and all and join the fun,
food is laid out by the ton.
There are fairy lights round every tree,
and a temporary jacuzzi.
A band plays well and takes requests,
I've heard it said they are the best.
Each Opussian is welcome here,
there's comfy sofas and a free bar near.
On a small platform there's a poetry-off,
it's a friendly crowd and no-one scoffs.
Beautiful words decorate each table,
(the authors credited with a tiny label).
We have a photo booth with props to use, like feather boas and silly shoes.
There's a happy atmosphere everywhere,
everyone's different but nobody cares.
We'll eat and sing in this woodland dell,
then we'll go home tired with a tale to tell.
