The other poem which caught folks attention was\u00a0 ‘Heroes’ by C Harvey:<\/p>\n

They are so good in everyway<\/pre>\n
They help us get through everyday<\/pre>\n
You find them even far away<\/pre>\n
And what ever you do they\u2019ll never stray.<\/pre>\n
They\u2019ll help you through the bad and good<\/pre>\n
And always make the perfect food<\/pre>\n
These heroes are of a different kind<\/pre>\n
The kind of which you often find<\/pre>\n
In the supermarket or corner shop<\/pre>\n
A chocolate shop would be the first stop<\/pre>\n
These heroes are yum, yum, yum<\/pre>\n
And will always satisfy your tum.<\/pre>\n
Cadbury heroes is what this poem\u2019s about.<\/pre>\n
Not the kind that scream and shout.\n\n<\/pre>\n
How long was it before you worked out what it was about? \ud83d\ude42 Both NG and CH will be receiving a wee prize in due course.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
