Letterbox Man



Thank you for all your cards,

Thank you for thinking of me

As I sit here working in my Letterbox.



Thank you for coming by

On a frosty winter morning, young sir;

Yes, Merry Christmas, Mum and Dad!



GR is my name, the Letterbox Man

Taking your letters every day

For the postman on his delivery round.



Theatre Royal Covent Garden

Edinburgh Zoo, British Museum

Letters to every part of the nation.



Like a soldier of the Grenadier Guards,

Or a Chelsea Pensioner with a WI address,

I will never leave my post.



I'm the Letterbox Man, sitting here

Unable to stretch my little legs, until

I go home after my long day shift.
