My wife and I were crossing the blue railway bridge near our home<\/p>\n
We had crossed this railway bridge many times before<\/p>\n
And as always were discussing the configuration of the signals nearby<\/p>\n
But this crossing was different as we were stopped<\/p>\n
By two beautiful policemen in a bright yellow squad car<\/p>\n
They enquired why we were crossing the bridge as such a recreation was banned<\/p>\n
Caron noted that were wandering a little as the day was fine nine fine<\/p>\n
I added that the stones of the bridge reminded me of a zara band a<\/p>\n
The marvellously handsome policeman asked me what a zara band a was<\/p>\n
I told him that it was type of flower quite common in the southern counties<\/p>\n
And that the name Wanda had Slavic origins which was of interest to us both<\/p>\n
The uglier of the two policeman alighted from the car<\/p>\n
I thought that he was going to arrest us both but instead he kissed Caron’s delicate hand<\/p>\n
He said that he was honoured to have met Mozart’s sister and gave her an early rose<\/p>\n
The squad car then drove off in the rough direction of the peacocks<\/p>\n
It was then that I noted that their salt tears were dripping from the bridge on to the lines below<\/p>\n
A train was Jew which was the only bloodline that I possessed<\/p>\n
I had to act quickly as my whole heritage was at risk<\/p>\n
Caron shouted to Wanda to stop the train but the signal was sulking<\/p>\n
As we had revealed her name to the officers of the law<\/p>\n
The train passed without incident and I found that I was still a Due<\/p>\n
Caron hugged me and suggested that we celebrate with an ice cream<\/p>\n
It was as she finished her sentence that a confectionary van driven by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart passed us by<\/p>\n
The van did not stop as the great composer was still cross with his sister for upsetting the distant signal<\/p>\n
