Burkinis on beaches shouldn’t be banned
Since used by those who rarely get tanned;
Who if they sit in the sun, instead
Turn from white to beetroot red.
They’re also used by girls with tattoos
Who when they’re older want to refuse
To let other people see their art,
And here burkinis can play their part.
Though others may think they aren’t a big deal,
Girls with scars may also feel,
That they would prefer them out of sight,
And that most surely is their right.
One mustn’t forget, though many do
Burkinis are something fairly new,
Designed to sell to various groups,
Unhampered by religious hoops.
For they aren’t a religious dress at all,
Though some might think the garments fall
Within this band, but they are wrong –
It’s in the secular they belong.
They’re simply a fashion like the rest
Playing their part in a woman’s quest
To find the sort of clothes that she
Feels enhance what she want to be.
