    Haven't thought about it in decades.

    O K :

    My twinkly lights are up ✨

    My twinkly Lights are up

    I found them in the attic

    They were all covered in dust

    with boxes all on top of it.

    I remember last year the kids had ago.

    but first we had to find a tree in the forest down below.

    Not to big and not too small

    nice and full around the bottom.

    Now I was tired already, wrapping, they now have a Christmas Eve box

    so that's another load of presents.

    Oh now its up, the tinsel wrapped round.

    Who's going to plug it in?

    In case it makes your eyes sparkle.

    I plugged it in and switched it on

    And made a big bang sound,

    the poor kids I thought I killed them

    as they jump and scampered around.

    What do you mean that one job done.

    I thought we had just begun

    There the front garden and the roof

    to string them all around.

    I came home from a shop it was a bit late

    to find the kids had decorated the front

    with a 7-foot snow globe and a 9 Foot gingerbread man.

    I kid you not, the lights could be seen from space.

    And every time the space station went past I'm sure they gave a wave,

    If you think I'm joking, I'll take a picture or two so next time you fly from Cardiff,

    you can enjoy the aerial view.

    Because I like poems, and because I am involved with the Community Spirit and Wellbeing Clinics, and it's kind of the same thing, I wrote this:

    Community Hubs.

    Hummed to the tune of Ghostbusters (ISH)

    If there’s something strange going on

    In your neighbourhood,

    What’s going on

    It’s your Community Hubs

    If you’re feeling good, in your Neighbourhood

    Who are you going to call, the ‘Community Hub’

    They know what's going on

    Even if you haven’t joined

    When on holiday, it’s the place to go.

    Local Community Centres and Hubs

    There, set up for girls and boys

    Toddlers’ groups and pre-schools as well.

    They have loads and loads of toys.

    Community Hubs and Centres.

    Mum’s and Dad’s can come down as well

    The Community Hub has Wi Fi and a library as well

    Don’t feel left out as well,

    Join Local Community Centres and Hubs.

    So, when out on holiday

    And you’re stuck on what to do

    Just go down to your Community Hub.

    Check out what they got,

    See, if they have something, you might try

    Bring it back home with you to your local Hub,

    Suggest that we have this as well

    At your Local Community Centres and Hubs.

    So don’t just jog around the estate

    Think about what’s needed to invent this space.

    What you would like to see, and design it, all for free

    It's your suggestion, Cos’ there community run

    Puts the spirit back where it belongs.

    In the community I was born.

    (or where you have just moved to)

    Community Hubs and Centres.

    Designed by you, run by you, for you, with you in mind.

    OBV. 09/12/2025.
