A Song of Mullion
Now will I take my newest ball
And build a mighty tee,
And waggle once or not at all,
And bang it out to sea,
And hire a boat and bring it back
And give it one terrific whack
And hole it out in three,
Or nine-or ten-or twenty five-
it matters not; to be alive
At Mullion in the summer time,
At Mullion in the silly time,
Is good enough for me.
A P Herbert (Circa 1920)
