MORETON BAY

White sails on the ocean; white sand in the bay; Lovers on the esplanade; young children at play; Sunlight on the islands; glassy, clear green sea; Seagulls circling overhead, white, graceful and free. Pelicans a-gliding; a shag upon the pier;
Fishermen cast lines to catch the fish a-swarming there. Children walking dogs; an old man sails a boat; Mothers pushing strollers; a tin dinghy afloat; Families lighting barbecues; the smell of onions frying; Laugher, singing, shouting, and a baby crying.

Red sails in the sunset as the shadows lengthen. Folks packing up and leaving as the daylight’s fading.

 

Moonlight on the water; alone with thoughts of you, I wander home and wonder if you’re thinking of me, too.
