Subject: Once more in hand - snap
Once more in hand - on stage am I
arousing contemplation
Alas-ed and pawed and recognised
by princes without station
My former japes - gone long ago
I've had my days in court
But I have real longevity
I'm able to report
That in my life - I did compose
sonatas, some heroic
But it's my bony skull endures -
Playing noble Yorick.
Bill Wootton
