This poem reflects on the many unhurried, enjoyable, inexpensive things to do anytime, anywhere.
I wrote this poem on a postcard-perfect day while living in Broome, Western Australia, on my journey around Australia in a motorhome. Hundreds of tourists come each day during the dry season to Cable Beach at sunset to watch nature's breathtaking beauty.
I have travelled right across the top of Australia to the northwest coast. Through small country towns and desert land, I climbed mountains to take in majestic views and walked through lush green valleys along the way. Now staying on the coast where the sun sets over the ocean.
Some people chose to sit inside a beachfront restaurant, and others sat on the back of a camel for a sunset ride along the ocean's edge. A select few sail out on a yacht, sipping champagne and caviar. Some drive further up the beach in their four-wheel drives, while many others sit on the beach, along the foreshore away from the crowds, waiting for nature's show to begin. Beverley Joy.
