Walking down the beaten track
from sandy coast to apartment
passing the locals in their flats
i’m enjoying the sun on a warm summers day
carrying a bucket of trinkets
turfed up by the ocean
by the time i get back they’ll be dried off
and i’ll have something to do
while the sun heads beyond the horizon

San Rafael Algarve Portugal, 2017
Surrounding the border of the hotel swimming pool
petite full feathered friends
are creating their own kind of waves
roaming around the water and cooling off as
ripples are created as they
outlandishly divebomb on the
waters edge before
surfacing above the sunbathers

4th March 2020
Sinking my toes into deep sand
while the fish swim around my legs
i look like a colossus to the
many under water – as my feet
make their way through the waves
its only when i stop – to take a look at the horizon do they
nibble at the soles underneath
great – a free pedicure

Heavens above! is it Christmas already ?
Of course not….there’s five more weeks till then, but
Look around you and you’ll already see
Instant signs the festive season is almost here
Decorations, presents and Festive Food
All over the place, and yet – when Boxing Day gets here
You’ll all be talking about your two weeks in the sun

Paying attention to the pennies should
Really be a priority throughout the year
Unless you treat every day like Christmas
Destination’s for holidays could be a little closer,
Even after extravagant spending, the piggybank deciding
Nearer to home than the equator
This year – the Bahamas , Next year ? Bournemouth
Salford (via Zakynthos) , 2019

Notable that moment , you were caught
Unawares – towels adrift and
Dressing gown cast on the floor
Expressionist – on the beach – perhaps – but in the flat – shut the door!
Sitting in the garden
Playing with a ball
As Mum or dad
Call out – from beyond the hall
Excitement awaits – we’re off to the museums!
Down goes your head – you don’t want to see ’em
Of course, its not like you’re grateful – you’ve been there before
Up with your classmates – till gone half past four
The holidays are for fun – out in the fresh air!
! You’ll be going somewhere sunny soon – but you don’t care! !

three sets of feet – Walking on the Sand
Rendezvous with candy floss
Sweet stuff acquired – but only two pairs of feet
Smaller pair of toes, treated by Big Feet
To a Piggyback
#freedomofexpression #iscriblr #countdown #creativity #beach
Soon it will be summer,
Under the shade we will be
Making sandcastles on the shore
Moments away from the sea
Expect a visit from a fish or two
Reacting as you dip your toes in the waters

It’s the ability
to remember
names and faces and dates
times and events
from a long time away
so memories aren’t lost
of moments from a time
where the best time you had
was splashing your feet in the sea
