the door slammed shut
on the lad who asked for more
as he was thrown into the

only to have other doors open
leading to new friends,new foes
new adventures of life
from boyhood to manhood
in not so merry old England

I agree with SarahW – this has always been one of my favourite books and movies/musicals…great last line: ‘in not so merry old England’
