“Round the ragged rocks”, I see,
My “ragged rascals ran*”;
The quote is apt so, like a thief,
Let’s steal it for my clan!
Not sand but boulders on this beach
But such fun to explore;
Marine detritus within reach
All washed up on the shore.
A hardy trek in sunny climes
Before a break for tea
Round jagged rocks our Thomas climbs
The family’s on a spree!
The Great Outdoors is where it’s at
Oz has wide-open spaces;
It’s winter - no need for a hat
See joy in their young faces!
Sure-footed, Isabella goes
After some reflexion
Quite determined, Heaven knows
In opposite direction!
