A LEGACY OF WORDS is Michael Alty's collection of contemporary poems ranging from pathos to comedy interspersed with those describing the antics and exploits of a number of colourful characters:

My Mate Harry

My mate Harry he had this dream

To buy a Russian submarine

To tow it into Tilbury Dock

And serve hot breakfasts around the clock

Hot cups of tea and sticky buns

They could go on deck and play with the guns

With rounds of toast eggs and bacon

You can even have your photograph taken

At the Captains Table he had this ploy

To give everyone a cuddly toy

On top of the Tower Harry would shout

"McDonalds eat your heart out"

The Clown

When the Circus came to town

We were entertained by a Clown

With a big red nose and wearing a frown

He was the star when the circus came to town

His tears were controlled but they could not stop

Falling on the ground of the 'Big Top'

The audience laughed when he fell about inside the sawdust ring

Every day he does the same old thing

To make people happy for a while

In his own make-believe style

And when the show has ended

For him there is always tomorrow

To continue with his sorrow
