Smiling In Childhood Sunshine


 Where Do You Feel Most At Home?
In A Cool Grubby Green Lily Pond? With yummy bugs!
In A Musical Backyard Cubby House? With secret passages!
In a space of spontaneous expansion,
emotionally safe shared with laughing caring natures?

These Backyard Moments
The Flooding Awesome Memories
Safe and secure, fun and sun
Hard work and then set free.

Grapefruits and honey dew
Soaring gums hold summer cicada song
Macadamia nuts and Mulberry leaves
Hills Hoist with perfect edges, NO TV!

Rich compost birthed from fresh cut grass
The spray of a sprinkler on naked me
We Walked On Sunshine
The Bottolo Parties, the swirling pool,
They sang all (quite) too loud.

The Dunny and Cubby
The swing and The Fort
Flying Rocks, Dizzy Mower's Dirt
Bon Fire Crackers those poor Puppy Dogs.

Footy and fences and feeling free
Cactus, azaleas and giant green frogs
Possums and pooches and chooks with silk worms

The Molly Water Tower Walkers and
Lime Ice Cream Golfing Greens Gwen
Lottery Winners and
Pepi's Breeders with wide BBQ tasty spaces,

The Valiants and 'Drovers
The Cakes and The Faces
Engagement with Spaces
We shared all these family adventures

Then even The Dark Deathly Fall
The Yard Down The Back Held Our Spaces
The Family Had Gathered
We Had Oh so Toed The Zealot Line

As We Walked In This Sublime
Strict Happy Sunshine

When Safe To Be Me,
