.3. Troughing It Poem by David Threadgold

.3. Troughing It



My granddad had a pigsty
At the bottom of his plot
He saves up veg and tatty peels
A copper boil’s the lot

He cooled them in a bucket
A smell it made you cough
Then took them to the pigsty
Where he tipped them in a trough

Pigs thought it smelled delicious
Ran forward with a snort
Granddad didn’t hang about
In case he should get caught
