Grand Tours And Backpacking Poem by Paul Warren

Grand Tours And Backpacking



In days past gentlemen and ladies would go
Adventuring after education in a public school show

They would round off their education with a tour
So that they could speak of things at tiffin quite demur

But now the talk is of gap years before work begins
And backpacking across the world cheap as chips wins

The adventure bug it would seem
Crosses the generations as do the dreams.
