21. PRESENT

The story at it stands at present…*

A policeman just doing his job,
Got knocked down by a runaway yob.
Then Eve’s deception,
Got frosty reception,
When she implied that Stu came to rob.

Young Eve told a Constable lies,
Which gave her a nasty surprise.
If she’d said that she knew,
Her boyfriend called Stu,
The law might have averted its eyes.

Now Stu’s all alone in the dark,
Being chased as the coppers’ main mark.
His thoughtless reaction,
Had triggered police action,
But now Stu’s had enough of this lark.

Carol, the nurse, had a worry,
And went out in too much of a hurry.
Forgot driving plus drink,
Might put her in clink,
Got pulled in, even though she was sorry.

A gamekeeper who was called Stan,
Was a lonely, but kindly old man.
His plan to deceive,
Gave Chris a reprieve,
And Stan found he had gained a new fan.

Young Chris got this story all started,
Then much from our tale he departed.
His girl, out of bed,
Was arrested instead,
But our saga can’t end with them parted.
