Aberfan
In nineteen sixty six disaster struck,
For this village had lost its luck,
One hundred and forty four were to die,
Extra time they could not buy.
The mud came sliding down the hill,
Covering wholly the village school,
One hundred and sixteen children died,
Their adulthood was denied.
Their parents would forever grieve,
As the rest of the country could not believe,
Of this villages devastation,
In the green hills of Gods creation.
Alexander Graham Bell
This man invented the telephone,
Which for him was like a bone,
Which he gnawed from day to day,
Until at last he got his way.
We owe him a deal of thanks,
Every business and the banks,
Everyone can stay in touch,
We must thank him very much.
We all now use this communication,
We can speak to every nation,
Whether at home or in the street,
To your mother, you now can speak.
