Seashore Picnic

The picnic blanket spread down upon the ground On a grassy verge high above the sand All our toes wiggle so free, with sunshiny tea and cakes Radio playing with the sound of an old jazz band We don’t have socks and feel so free, Sitting in the shade of a Norfolk pine tree On a sun shiny day for sun shiny play. The moon tide’s motion curls the waves so to greet the rocks, A thousand droplets dance toward the sky Ascending down as natures melodical cymbals break, White frizzles, bubbles in the blue Tiny sunshiny dots floating calmly on the sea Simply turning on and off, Just to make the twinkles twinkle Just for you and me On a sun shiny day for sun shiny play Everyone stands shouts and points out to sea, “We see! We see! The Whales, the Whales, ” 'We see! We see! Their whopping tails, We all jump up for glee. A mighty splash as the leader jumps and dives back in, Swimming onward north for a warmer swim, So gentle these giants of the sea, Who always stick to harmless rules, We wave goodbye with a sigh but Happy to say What a way to sun shiny play on A happy sunshiny day.
