Peterborough is almighty city.
Cathedral, masterpiece so pretty.
900 years ago, made of lime stone.
Elegance, magnificent two tone.
Ancient dwelling, you will agree.
Lead windows,spectacular to see.
Standing sill, incredible design.
Colourful, amazing spheres decline.
Museum, outlandish affair.
Enchantment, for all to compare.
Ghostly, atmosphere and sight.
Eerie basement, beware at night.
River Nene, boats that lead.
Wildlife that you feed.
Oriental cuisine barge sways.
Charters, meals, alcohol, music plays.
