REVOIR

REVOIR

At Andy’s wake

The decades dissolved

Immediate recognition

Clear memories.

But Forest Green!

You’ve strayed

Adulterously.

A convert?

Methodists not Popes

Where you live

Why settle for a chapel?

Seduced by vegan burgers?

Maybe the Sirens called?

But Odysseus returned to Ithaca

The suitor was vanquished

Penelope awaits with open arms

Fleming, Rogers, Trollope

Moss, Hoddle, even Doyle

The Phoenix is rising from the ashes

Is the forest really greener?

STFC is home
