In writing I have used a poem by James K. Baxter as a starting point to write my own holiday poem. I hope you like it.
Zoe’s James K Baxter Poem
Halswell Pool was usual enough;
It had wooden tables, unusual bench chairs, a huge sparkly pool, slippery slide, and even a lifeguard doing his job sitting on the stand scanning the area
My Mum, Dad, Jamie and I did what swimmers do -
eating, swimming, playing, laughing, and splashing about.
eating, swimming, playing, laughing, and splashing about.
Doing nothing important.
Would you like to be a life guard keeping an eye on all those people splashing around?
