A LEGACY OF WORDS is Michael Alty's collection of contemporary poems ranging from pathos to comedy interspersed with those describing the antics and exploits of a number of colourful characters: My Mate HarryMy mate Harry he had this dreamTo buy a Russian submarineTo tow it into Tilbury DockAnd serve hot breakfasts around the clockHot cups of tea and sticky bunsThey could go on deck and play with the gunsWith rounds of toast eggs and baconYou can even have your photograph takenAt the Captains Table he had this ployTo give everyone a cuddly toyOn top of the Tower Harry would shout"McDonalds eat your heart out"The ClownWhen the Circus came to townWe were entertained by a ClownWith a big red nose and wearing a frownHe was the star when the circus came to townHis tears were controlled but they could not stopFalling on the ground of the 'Big Top'The audience laughed when he fell about inside the sawdust ringEvery day he does the same old thingTo make people happy for a whileIn his own make-believe styleAnd when the show has endedFor him there is always tomorrowTo continue with his sorrow
