haiku in 3 verses.

Memory Dredging – 60’s Bristol
Teddy Boys, think back
Beetle Crushers on their feet.

Walk the Streets of Bristol with me-King St.
Walk along King Street
to the old Llandoger Trow
Old Salts’ ghosts around.
A Famous Bristol son- Samuel Plimsoll- The Sailor’s Friend
Cargo ships sinking
because of overloading.
Devised Plimsoll Line.
Celtic Ceremony
Oak-grown Mistletoe
Sickles in hand to cut it;
Druid priests at work.

An apology. I think you have to be from Bristol to understand this posting well. If you are not from Bristol I hope you enjoy the words anyway.
Is Alfred still there?
Inside a glass display case
at the museum.
Who is Alfred then?

Died at Bristol Zoo.
Of fright in his cage.
It happened in World War II,
During an air-raid.
