Boardng School On the Coast
BOARDING SCHOOL ON THE COAST
The new parents were pleased with the short tour
Absorbing some finer appreciation of
The stench of geography,
And feeling the deep irritation of French grammar.
Approval was implied by the nodding heads
At the din from the music appreciation class,
(Frenetically relaxing to Handel’s Air from Water Music).
Hesitant applause met the senior boys,
Each drying out two toefuls of English Channel
After their weekly swimming lesson.
