♫♫ I studied Shakespeare
when I was at school
thought Romeo was a pet
Felt if I met him
I'd act like a fool
I'd be a poor Juliet

Now that I know him
I'm not really sure
boy you're as charming as he
Saying the same things
to all the girls
or is it just to me

Romeo,
why am I so in love with you
Romeo,
is it you or the things you do
I've been yours
from the moment you said hello
Are you mine
or just only my Romeo

I studied Shakespeare
when I was at school
thought Romeo was a joy
I liked the true way
he loved Juliet
just my ideal of a boy

You know I like you as my Romeo
that's how I want you to be
but if you're out on some other date
can you be true to me

Romeo,
why am I so in love with you
Romeo,
is it you or the things you do
I've been yours
from the moment you said hello
Are you mine
or just only my Romeo

"It's the ash! It's falling!" yelled Julian, almost startling Dick out of his wits...
"Listen to its terrible groans and creaks!" yelled Julian, almost beside himself with impatience.

Thanks for the link Fiona. I really enjoyed the 'Enid Blyton' version of Romeo and Juliet, I was sorry when it stopped so suddenly. I also read the first story about all the boys called Jack, I thought that was great. I'm going to read the rest when I have time.

I don't know if its up there with 'Shakesperian status' but, for me anyway, EB is one of a handful of authors whose entire body of work I thoroughly enjoy reading.

I often confuse playwrights and novelists. In England, the most famous novelist remains Charles Dickens. Stephen I.
