A Day Out

Picnic blanket, breeze caught, and spread out on the grassy                hill.                                                      

Adults only on nostalgia trip roll down bank and spin as a                    top

Rays of sunshine shoot out from the bottom                                         of

Turquoise edged cloud, which hovers over the cliff side                        rocks

Youthful exuberances displayed in kite swirling                                     formation

                                                          

Tasting picked berries and collecting them for later to put them            in

Iced buns and lemonade taken down to the naturist beach                 area

moorings which have boats for hire and voting which one                    of

either group would be the first to strip off au                                        natural

Sun sets on the horizon, deepening to an amber hue in it's final          beauty
