"When a wave of love takes over a human being...such an exaltation takes him that he knows
that he has put his finger on the pulse of the great secret and the great answer"
Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings
Tuesday Afternoon
i call it my own
this quiet little harbour beach
where i sit watching bobbing boats
on the glassy waves
to soothe my frayed nerves
to breathe the sea air
at the end
of a grey autumn day
ukelele dad strums softly
to his bonny girl
crawling along the sand
squealing with delight
at everything
she sees and touches
and dad
well dad is just over the moon
showering his sweet angel
with treasures that matter
lucky kid

made my day
This is lovely.
