Love Poems for Ambridge

Archers listeners flex their poetic muscles on the most romantic day of the year...

A poem for Rex

Roses are red I feel for poor Rex He loves Pip But zero chance of sex #thearchers

Violets are Blue Pip has a farm Which the boys all want too #thearchers

... And for bosom buddies Lilian and Justin

Justin and Lillian In the herbal leys All looking rosy As long as Justin pays💘

Poems for Rob

Roses are red, violets are blue, I'd like to kiss Rob, with the sole of my shoe #thearchers

Roses are Red Violets are Blue New anti-cruelty laws Means it's prison for you. #titchynobmustdie #thearchers

Pansies are Pink, Which can be quite insipid. Let's all club together, And buy Rob a Triffid.

A Poem of Hope

#thearchers Just time for a quick Ambridge Valentine poem: "Roses are red,violets are blue. Kirsty's suspicious,about time too."

In [Feint] Praise of Lynda

Linda Snell is a hell of a snob But whatever she does She's better than Rob...

Charlie is fit And Christopher's buff But Lynda's left Robert To go out with Scruff

Jill's ascent of Lakey Hill: A Poem

Roses are Red Violets are blue Here is a cake I baked for you two #thearchers
