Now when you were five in eighty-four,
You’d travelled to two of the corners four.
Four times to India from London non-stop,
Twice to Australia to see Jean and Pop.

Helicopter to coral reefs,
And panning for gold –
Houseboat in Kashmir,
Trekking in the cold.
More miles in your log book
when you were five,
Than Grandma and Grandpa at
three score and five.
P.S. And that, ARWF,
includes six years in the W and RAF.
