TWELVE BELLS BLOWING IN THE WIND!

How did we play on Friday afternoon?

Did we play all the notes in the right place or too soon?

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind,

The answer is blowing in the wind!

Did we ever get to the end of a piece?

We pegged the music, struggled with our stands

We turned, clasped tightly and used both our hands,

Did we succeed?

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind

The answer is blowing in the wind!

The gazebo danced and swayed………..

We battled on, our team of six

We laughed, we played, we did our best,

We didn’t even sit down to rest!

How did we manage to stay upright?

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind

The answer is blowing in the wind!

When we valiantly managed to play our last piece

The wind finally started to calm and to cease

We packed up our bells and peeled off a glove

Then sat down to partake of date loaf and tea, which we love!

We talked of our pleasure

At being back together

Of sharing the space

Each in our own place.

What made it such fun?

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind,

The answer is blowing in the wind.
