There once was a slug from Slough

Who said, “I really don’t know how

This lettuce tastes so good!

I wish that I could

Spend my days eating lettuce in Slough!”

      I haven’t actually visited Slough. However, I passed through it on the train, which is what prompted me to compose this poem. I’m glad you like it Esther, and thank you for commenting.

      I’m glad you like my poem Michael. The poet John betjeman helped to make Slough famous with these lines: “come friendly bombs and fall on Slough”. He wasn’t a fan of the place! I’m sure that, in reality Slough is a lovely place for all it’s residents, whether they are slugs or people!
