Widths
We were woollen
as the coach pulled up
alongside the C of E school
our swimming provided free
and municipal
so the stung eyes and barked, sodden ideas
were mitigated
at least if we fell
into the rank brown swells nearby
our inevitable drowning
could be offset:
the boy could swim
and was a king at buying the 5p
Highland Toffee from the machine
