What is it about Perth?

'Songs about Perth' CBC's All In A Day Contest
"If you're loaded retire here... 
See a graveyard, taste a beer" !


I thought I could tell a bit more about Perth! And I have the photos to prove it...

Dr. Goldman came to town

Not riding on a pony

Saw Stewart Park 

Thought it a lark

Said Perth, it was quite tony!

For the beauty: Mother's earth
Here: Ontario, in Perth

Summer land and water play

Lots are swimming in the Tay

Weeping willows shed no tear

Stewart Park, Perth, Ontario

In the tent you'll have a beer

Festivals, they call the tourists

Organics they are for purists

In Stewart Park the swimmers frolic
Maple Festivus and garlic

Along the Tay come sit awhile 

Dream away in charming style

Celebrations they abound 

Melifluous music will resound

Kilts on runners, thereupon

Hike for Hospice marathons 

Long-haired hippies can apply

Organic farmer's greens you'll buy

Locavores have many choices

In their Convertibles, Rolls-Royces

Bargain hunters,

Trees and towers

Antique shoppers

Beauteous flowers

Long haired hippies,

Oldsters, youngsters, 

Artisans, chippies

Weekend warriors,

Red-haired, no-haired

Motorcycle courtiers 

Boorish boys of summer

Driving in their hummer

Donuts circling on the lake

Locals in canoes they quake
