4 boys in the pool, wrestling And beside them a family of three Dad, mum and girl of about 6 Getting into the raucousness of it The family are wresting and swimming around A pink ball between the three Later the girl is just away from mum and dad, rubbing her eyes And dad tackles mum a little Overexcited And mum says don't hold me like that And affectionate dad comes round behind her The 3 unite, mum checks on daughter Some other mum saw me As I went daydreaming "That's what you want!" I didn't look directly at the family as they left the pool Just in the corner of my eye As mum put on her slippers and walked away
