“Nye’s Isobel”
Isobel Varley
Some folk don’t like tattoos, some have one or two.
But Isobel, she is different; she’s not like me or you.
Her body is almost covered, from her head down to her toes,
And she adds a little colour to everywhere she goes.
The World’s Most Tattooed Senior Woman, an accolade to behold.
Every picture tells a story, but there are some she’s never told.
She’s the Guinness World Record holder; she’s in books and on T.V.
Isobel! The first lady of tattooing, of that, most will agree.
Her character, her cheeky smile, her laugh can shatter glass,
And what she lacks in stature, she more than doubles up in class.
Yes! She is a classy lady, though some might think a little loud,
But once they get to meet her, she leaves them feeling proud.
Proud to have known her, proud of what she has achieved,
Proud to get their photograph, with Isobel on their knee.
Tattooed folk were once despised, by most of society,
And if we didn’t have folk like Isobel, Where would tattooing be?
