And did those feet in ancient times
walk Upton Park and Stepney Green
and was the holy Lambeth North
in Elephant And Castle seen?

And did the Hounslow West divine
shine forth up or Northwood Hills
and was South Kensington builded here
among Moor Park satanic mills?

Bring me my Bow of burning Road
Bring me my 'arrow-on-the-Hill
Bring me Mile End: Oakwood unfolds!
Bring me my Charing Cross of fire!

Bring me my card of Network Gold,
Bring me my Oyster of desire;
Bring me my tube, O doors unfold!
Bring me a Thameslink to admire ...

This is the Eurostar crossing the border,
Bringing Czechs and Poles, a new world order,
Plumbers for the rich, plumbers for the poor,
A Polish plumber boyfriend for the girl next door?
Exiting the Chunnel, a steady hum,
Tells us that the traction motors' work is done.
Through sparse Kent she rampages,
Her driver's eyes upon the gauges.
Sweeping along past fertile farms,
Fed by the wires on lattice arms.
Striding forward along the rails,
Welcomed to St Pancras by champagnes and ales.

Very good! The best so far, I think.

Thank you! With more than a little help from W. H. Auden. ;-)

Can't help with the last verse, but I suggest West ROO-islip instead
of south kensington
