Poem:	ON THE ROCKS AT BALNARRING

	is it husband’s spirit comfort to bring small grey fantail darts swiftly, springs? spreads tail wide and hops around just a few feet above the ground tiny twitter nervous and flighty does not rest long quick and sprightly overweight family strolls in shallows mother stubs toe in pain wallows ring son at home still feeling upset sad and lonely cannot forget memories of time when still family of four walking and swimming playing on shore kids built castles of drizzled sand decorated with shells bodies sun-tanned sailed in Mirror by friends on loan yellow boat, red sails manoeuvres shown Westernport Yacht Club still has sailing school groups of children learn ropes and rules orange rubber dinghy always at ready if practice boat capsizes will rescue and steady sole fisherman wanders back home whiting for lunch filleted bones smell of salt wave motion heard feather on dry seaweed from gull or other bird footprints of all sizes different patterned soles others have walked here left imprint holes gentle cool breeze grey cloud cover plaintive cry of distant plover friends walk to Coolart nature swamp land soon back for lunch will give helping hand time now to leave brown-red rocky point playground for crabs and anemones’ haunt brief swim and shower then salad with bread read book for while or rest on camp bed
