Billy's Boat

.                                                            Billy

                                                      built  a sandcastle

                                        Whilst playing on the beach, on top

          he placed his little flag, safe and out of reach. He wondered if around it some

 water he should pour? A castle out of sand he had never made before, his daddy took his
bucket, whilst Billy took the spade, digging out a moat, the sandcastle took shape.,Daddy
poured the water, Billy launched his paper boat, and delighted as he watched it sail
around his  castle moat.

What a lovely picture of father and sons bounding moments--The innocence and the purity of a young child, still standing within awe of the simple things in life~while standing near his hero, that never let's him down! "Beautiful Picture & Thought Here~Beautiful Julie!"~On we go---"Love, John!:)
