TKO... A Come Back Story

Our story begins, on a cold winter’s day

In a place we all love, not so far away

Orford castle, way up on the hill

Our leader does sit, hand poised with quill

 

“A speech” he sighs “to rally my troops”

“A call to arms while the army regroups”

He sits there and ponders, his mind all a muddle

He looks to his teddy, and goes for a cuddle

 

This is the inspiration, he desperately needed

And deep in his brain, the words are seeded

He dips the quill and begins to scratch

The greatest of speeches that will have no match

 

The word flow like water

Inspiring slaughter
 
The speech is ready for his masses
The greatest of speeches it defiantly surpasses
 
 Meanwhile…. 

In burgundy fields, the old peoples home
Out on the grass, sits a wicked old gnome
The biggest of smiles sits on his face
Plotting his next move, just incase 

Up skips a nurse, Lisa’s her name
One thing to note, this girl has no shame
“Tikay” she whispers, in a seductive tone
“Its time for your bath, you must come home” 

After his bath, Tikay lays on his bed
Can’t get to sleep, a thought pops in his head
“Lord Orford will rise, and crush me to pieces”
The smile on his lips, slowly decreases  

Back at Orford castle…. 

Lord Orford sits, way up in his tower
He reads his notes, the word bristle with power
“The Orfordian’s way” he reads out the title
He ready’s himself, for its first recital 

Down in the courtyard, the army stands waiting
Unlike there foe, no need for carbon dating
General Jaeger inspects the troops
From the tip of there hats, right down to there boots 

Lord Orford appears, to deafening cries
Jaeger shouts “SILENCE” the army complies
The speech is started, his people take it all in  
The shout go up, “WE ARE GOING TO WIN!”
 

Somewhere far far away…. 

Mr Hartigan arrives at the field of battle
Only to find, it’s full of cattle
Two days late, how could he commit such a sin?
The question to ask, is where has he been?

Sat at home, eating his fill
His wife had made, a fantastic meal
“Forgetting something” his head did tease
To the back of his mind, he brushed it with ease

 …… So this is end, of chapter one
Please don’t fret, there’s more to come
The rise of lord Orford is well on its way
And on this note, only the last thing to say  

Tikays 2-0 lead, will soon disappear
For as Orfordians, we have no fear
Tikay can feel it, his sure fire demise
We will win on Tuesday, to Tikay’s surprise

    Deadhands,

    That is a wonderful effort especially coming from the opposition.

    I dont know if you all realise but there actually is an Orford Castle in Suffolk.

    Here it is







    They are at the moment digging a hole at the bottom of the castle wall for Richard's grave.

    They said they would have it ready by Wednesday

    I'm doing the service

    God bless you all
