Written for The Goldmine Show

Radio....
Friendly voices
News and sport
Record choices

Switch it on
For music and chat
Local weather
This and that

No pictures
Just sound
Nevertheless
Contentment found

Wednesday night’s
Goldmine Show
Takes you back
To long ago

Tunes you loved
Are played again
A lovely trip
To way back when

Sixties stars
Were all the rage
And a £5 note
Was your weekly wage

Turn it on
For songs forgotten
From Vera Lynn
To Johnny Rotten

You’ll be surprised
How quickly time flies
And Kevin and Heather
Are saying their goodbyes

But have no fear
They’ll be back quite soon
With lots more memories
And many a great tune.
