BRIGHTON IN THE RAIN

I’ve never been to Athens and I’ve never been to Rome

I’ve only seen the Pyramids in picture books at home

I’ve never sailed across the sea or been inside a plane

I’ve always spent my holidays in Brighton in the rain

 

            I’ve never eaten foreign food or drunk in a foreign bar

   I’ve never kissed a foreign girl or driven a foreign car

   I’ve never had to find my way in a country I don’t know

   I’ve always known just where I am and where I’ll never go

         

      I’ve read travel books by writers who have been to Pakistan

I’ve heard people telling stories of adventures in Iran

I’ve watched TV documentaries about China and Brazil

But I’ve never been abroad myself; it’s making me feel ill

                                    

                               I’ve studied several languages like Hindi and Malay

                               I’ve learnt lots of useful sentences I’ve never been able to say

                               The furthest place I’ve ever been was to the Isle of Man

                               And that was full of tourists from Jamaica and Japan

  

I’ve never been to Athens and I’ve never been to Rome

I’ve only seen the Pyramids in picture books at home

I’ve never sailed across the sea or been inside a plane

I’ve always spent my holidays in Brighton in the rain

 

The world is a book

 

and those who do not travel

 

read only a page.

 


 

HAVE YOU EVER?

 

Have you ever been to Moscow,

Milan or Madrid?

Have you ever watched the sun set

on the Great Pyramid?

Have you ever swum with dolphins?

Have you ever touched a snake?

Have you been down a volcano?

Have you felt an earthquake?

 

I have

I’m a traveller, you see

I’ve crossed all five continents

and sailed the seven seas

I’ve spent five months in Malaysia

and two years in Japan

I’ve walked from France to Finland;

Portugal to Pakistan

I have                                                    Have you ever been to Boston

                                                              Bombay or Berlin?

                                                              Have you ever slept beneath the stars

         with the Bedouin?

         Have you ever trekked the desert

          on a camel’s back?

          Have you ever climbed a mountain?

          Have you ever seen a yak?

 

           I have

           I’m a traveller, you see

           I’ve crossed all five continents

            and sailed the seven seas

            I’ve spent five months in Malaysia

            and two years in Japan

            I’ve walked from France to Finland;

            Portugal to Pakistan ... I have
