Calico Girl
Introduction My Muse mentioned that her Calico Cat was a Calico Queen and the next song on the album was "Calico Skies" an absolutely beautiful song by Paul McCartney that I am learning to play at the moment to put on my YouTube Channel.

Cheddar Cheese And Strawberry Jam
Introduction At first, I was going to do this as a sonnet, but then thought I would try it as a visual butterfly cinquain and try and make the visual representation look like a sandwich. When I tell people how much I love this they think I am a nutter, but they convert when they actually try it.
