Adults at the park

A warm summer day
Possible light spray
Hand in hand
Staring at the sand

A gentle stroll
Eyeing the big poll
Through the gate of destiny 
The excitement and the chemistry

Grasping for the handlebar
Hand sliding down the cold bar
Rocking back and forth
From south to north

Backside clasped so tight
No chance of a big fright
Mouth open and so happy
Making daddy a happy chappie

Run grab the chain
Feel of rubber so plain
A gentle push
Feeling the rush

Legs flying so high
Going faster like a fly-by
Back down to pick up speed
Careful not to fall and bleed

Jump and land in the pit
Searching hard admiring the split
Hands playing deep inside
Make her more bug eyed

Finally grabbing the bucket
Not resisting the need to suck it
Filling that deep hole
Like a game of whack a mole

A leap up hands lifting up the prize
Happiness fills the glistening eyes
A lift up legs spread
Climbing on the bridgehead 

Clambering through the tunnel
Loving the idea of a pummel 
Making it high and to the top
Ready for the massive drop

A slip and slide is all it takes
For a girl to have the shakes
A frictionless fall so fast
Has left her aghast 

Next to grab the tall pole
A hard grip around the bean pole
Legs wrapped around so tight
Hitting the ground eyes bright

The day is done legs so tired
Loving all I have acquired 
Time to go and have a rest
And realise I have been blessed
