With Summer finally arriving here I thought I would take my camera down to the beach and take some pics for this Season...I was not disappointed!!!
The view above leading to 'our' beach...
A lost children's shoe on the post...still there 10 days later!!!
Looking south...
North...
Out to the ocean...
This pic above taken at Constitution Dock, Hobart, Tasmania
our beautiful Island State...
I have blogged this poem before and it always comes back to me every Summer so just had to post it again...
Sea Fever by John Masefield
SEA FEVER
I MUST down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a gray mist on the sea's face, and a gray dawn breaking.
I must down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
I must down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way, where the wind's like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.
Enjoy these beautiful days in the lead up to Christmas...Dzintra
