Cinderella

CINDERELLA left with hardly anything at all

When her nearby sister gets the glittering ball

So many other Cinderellas too

Seems many of you agree with my point of view

Dursley presented with a pot of gold

With Cinders parishes left in the cold

Stroud District Council something is wrong

You sure have created a very big pong

Indignant and angry with you yet again

No matter what you say or how you explain

By the way ... where is the resulting 'Flood' of money?

From all you/we 'poured' into the canal

Bet no response we will get and never shall

Here in Wotton you ignore our plight we are being choked

The Potters Pond housing should be revoked

So many good reasons not for housing

The fight is not over, passions arousing

To the planners you got it wrong

People are waking up - singing the same song

So to all those of you who are indignant and angry

Make a choice

Write to the Gazette our outlet

The peoples traditional choice.
