When I was a child đź’•

When I was a child đź’•

I walk four miles or maybes more in flimsy flip flops and my feet are sore

So I take them off and carry one in each hand, coz I have reached the coastline as I stand on the sand

My frown turns around from the feeling of my feet , I love the sensation of the sand in the sunny heat

Tickling and tantalising, I dig in my toes into sandy swiggles where the tiny worm goes

I sit down on the beach and I inhale the fresh air and feel the sea fret dampen my hair

Yes I am at one with good old Mother nature, just like yon seafaring mermaid in a picture portraiture

If I was a Seagull I would be happy allday ducking and diving into the oceanic sway

But I am not a creature nor a bird that can fly, yet Oh how  I wish I had some wonderful wings to soar that beautiful blue sky

Imagine the splenderous sights I could see if I only had a wingspan to lift off and flee

So I paddled the puddles and smelt salty brine, coz this delight wets an appetite of mine

Such a taste of my childhood and a reminder of home, when I was a child where I used to roam…
