Excellence Award in the 'Summertime Fun ONLINE' competition
Laughter and cheers from my family,
Echo against the dense bushland,
I journey through the ragged hills,
On my quad bike wheels,
Watching the birds fly,
As I glance at the setting sun,
The beautiful colours paint a hue,
As cows gather around the farmstead,
Kindling fire burns alight,
As we roast marshmallows,
Under the moonlight,
While foxes wander astray,
The warm wintry breeze,
Hugs me through the mist,
As I am surrounded by my people,
And this wonderful place I call home.
