Sixty. ( A celebration of my favourite show, a poem )

 Sixty

====


In the vast expanse of time, a tale unfolds,


Sixty years of journeys, on the time winds, the TARDIS rolls, 


Doctor Who, a traveler through the cosmic sea,


Regenerating, evolving, a Time Lord's legacy.


In the echoes of Gallifrey, where the Time Lords reside,

The Doctor strides, with compassion as a guide.

Across the epochs, a hero emerges clear,

Defender of worlds, in the face of any fear.


Through the corridors of time, corridors of space,

The Doctor's journey, a captivating chase.

From the Dalek's shriek to the Silence's hush,

Captain Jack making other companions blush


In each regeneration, a rebirth anew,

Yet two hearts endure, steadfast and true.

Adventures in time & space are told,

In the depths of the vortex, mysteries unfold.


60 years of TARDIS blue, a rescue is planned,

The Doctor's presence, as he takes your hand.

The universe explored, countless lives saved,

Though the chances slim and the prospects were grave.


So, here's to the Doctor, through time and space,

60 years of adventures, some companions Ace,

There are some odd villains In the tapestry of time, 

Voord, Ood, Chumblies, monsters of every design.



From Hartnell to Gatwa, the faces change,


Yet the essence remains, a conceit so strange.


Valeyard, Davros. the Master, the villains abound,


Across galaxies, the Doctors speeches profound.



The sonic hums, a sonic screwdriver trance,


River Somg brings a little romance, 


A celebration of moments, across times span,


Six decades of wonder, for devoted fans.



Companions and foes, entwined in the plot,


Temporal twists, where past and future clot.


60 years of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey glee,


A journey through time, on the BBC.



As the time vortex titles swirl for the Anniversary,


Raise a cheer for the Doctor, whoever they might be.


Through time and space, the adventures continue,


Happy 60th, Doctor Who, Happy Regeneration to You
