Happy Crew

 
A hapless,  hilarious,  down-at-heel gang
Selling anything door-to-door in Dublin and beyond.
Our yellow Fiat 127,  indefatigable Biggsy, 
Steam belching from his bonnet.

High-energy wit in the runaway comedy
Of wilfully unrealistic thinkers - 
Ecstatic conversation,
The sharing of random rewards.

In a hilly village,  Biggsy breaks -
Black smoke from burning oil.
We peer into the mysterious engine :
Soft rain hisses on the engine block.

After the giggling rounds of drinks
I call my flat from Gogarty's Bar :
Can you come and rescue me?
I'm lost in the heart of Ireland.
