Walking along the sunny beach, relaxed, calm mind wide open
Trees gently swaying in the summer breeze
She loves seeing her friends
Cake-eating faces and their jellybean laughs
She loves when people are full of hamburgers and bubbly with gangs of gummy bears
Relaxing, swimming and lying on the beach
Strawberries and cream-coloured clothes
Walks around
Bounce in her walk
