‘ull’s Work of Art


A beautiful work of art

Is historical Kingston Upon Hull?

It is difficult to know where I should start

It is an amazing scarf made with love and full of Hull’s beating wild heart

Different colours, humour, laughter and many tears

As our scarf of many bright colours flows in the Humber, breeze

The River Humber’s water ripples out to the North Sea

Maureen Lipman gave us all an Ology

William Wilberforce rid us of slavery

Philip Larkin gave us our poetry

The Housemartins became The Beautiful South

We’re not leaving DJ, Norman Cook out

The music and drama scene can stand out on its own two feet

Of course, we are best known

For our fishing industry

Too many ships lost at sea

Never forgotten

Certainly not by me

Hull’s Headscarf’s Heroes, fought for their Fishermen’s bravery

Amy Johnson CBE

Flew halfway around the world

Solo

What happened to her

We will never know

So ‘ull is certainly a rough diamond

With many hidden shiny gems

Brought to life with a colourful flowing scarf

That just happens to be ‘ull’s work of art
