Return of a Grumpy

by Mike Pennell

I waited till you got the Prize
before I came back in;
a Grumpy Volunteer
could have meant we didn’t win!!

I made my way to Falmouth
and found a place to park -
it’s hard if you’re not local,
I’m just glad it wasn’t dark.

I found I was still recognised,
and welcomed with a smile,
a hug was rather nice as well
(not had one for a while!!)

We didn’t have too many tourists -
Perhaps they weren’t told I was back!!
I was going to ring up the “Packet”
to tell them I’d not got the sack.

I managed to navigate safely
Though they’ve moved an exhibit or two,
but the Café still serves good Espresso –
and a double of those sees me through.
