The Love Grenade

 

Sinead

threw a grenade

down the esplanade.

It was no ordinary, common and garden

explosive device this,

when it landed it showered everyone with bliss.

The miserable old man forgot his stereotype and smiled

The pesky kids were no longer that but assertive.

Older lads with hoods were viewed with warmth not suspicion

their scooters handed back to them with erudition.

Even the Special Constables had to admit that they weren’t all that.

“Where did you get that from Sinead?” Donna enquired

“Look within dear heart” Sinead replied
