The Yanerbie Highway

the Yanerbie Highway The Yanerbie Highway Is paved with white silken sands Stretched between water’s lapping fingers And the feet of towering dunes The Yanerbie Highway Runs at Southern Ocean’s side Forever exposed to her turbulent moods And the ebbing, flowing tides Choose a spot Under broad blue sky And pull over beside The precession of surfboards Fishing rods, and bathers Dogs with wagging tongues Some chasing four wheel drives Cruising the highway at a leisurely speed Against a back drop Of rolling waves and distant red cliffs Four wheel drives with awnings Awnings that shade smiling faces A friendly wave, passing traffic Possibly stop for a chat Sometimes between friends old Sometimes new The Yanerbie Highway Its silken white sands Run along Southern Ocean’s side Stretching into adventure

First of all congratulations for being published. Your rendition of such a highway quite like a promenade with people meeting brings memories since I've been in lockdown for a year now. Beautiful poetry.
