I Have Not But I Have

I have not swum with dolphins in the middle of the ocean,

But I have swum off the coast of Colonsay in the icy waves splashing  and my favourite pony paddling beside me.

I have not been to Africa to hear the roar of the lions and the thumping of Elephants,

But I have  seen them in the zoos staring through the glass.

I have not sky dived from 1000s of feet looking down on the earth,

But I have abseiled from 80 feet before on a school trip which is a start.
