Carpe Diem Haiku Kai
perpetual snow
reflects the sunlight
i dream of a nude beach
Chevrefeuille
Lady Jane , now called Lady Bay, is a beautiful secluded harbour beach with a stunning view of Sydney. It has been allocated as a nude beach . From the walkway above the beach to
South Head, one is subjected to the sight of dangling male appendages , perhaps posing for photo opportunities or whatever , for the passersby. Curiously I have yet to see a naked woman on this beach, which may have something to do with the change of name from
Lady Jane to
Lady Bay.
Unknown to many, this area is potentially a jurisdictional nightmare. Any unseemly behaviour occuring in the water is the responsibility of the
Maritime Services Authority, whereas if it occurs on the sand it is the responsibility of the
National Parks and Wildlife .
If it occurs on the rocks it is officially a" grey area" and no government department or local council wants to take responsibility.
I have always wanted to swim at this beach , so next summer Rall is proposing (not nude but fully decked out in a wet suit of course) to give it a shot. No doubt I will be breaching a regulation touching upon political correctness offending nudists and/or other minorities. If challenged I will clamber to the rocks, seeking jurisdictional immunity and remain there until a passing boat rescues me from my " grey area"
sad fruit
dangling from the trees
scaring the wildlife
magpie tales
poor perpetua

of marrying a life saver
and enter a nunnery instead
