A beach


 

Summer brings us to an ice cold sea where

 

Eaves of silent dunes stand up tall 

 

Against old friends raising thier caps. 

 

From the foreshore tea trees, along a track,

 

Over shimmering heat race feet to a cooler sand;

 

Room to be anywhere you care to be.

 

Dolphins can suddenly appear for you.

 

Birds, confident seabirds keep a distance.

 

Eyes rest upon the blue while others read.

 

All cares are on hold, somewhere else...while

 

Crisp food starts to steam in its white paper.

 

Have lunch, a swim, before the cares return...
