Summer Strolls

Love warm evening summer strolls
Kids rock everywhere we roll
Upon bank of creek bed cast out ultra light fishing pole
Serenity of nature speaks to the core of my soul

Moving towards the sun as it descends slowly behind a hill
Mesmerized by glorious color display for a brief moment time stands still
Stop every couple feet for flowers kids plucked, their baskets they fill
Break out sweaters and blankets for kids, night air may bring light chill

Some priceless funfilled laughter, quick pitstop at a park
Detour along a beach, kids swear they saw a shark
Venture to Lakenenland,  junk's sculpted into historical art where Tom Lakenen continues to leave his mark
Along bog walk may need a flashlight as moon and stars may not be enough to light our path in the dark

Pups also enjoy tagging along
Being in the great outdoors you can never go wrong 
Lullabies of God's creatures are most beautiful of songs
Fresh air and sweet natural aromas kids will be dreaming soon, won't be long
