Bush Walk to the Sea

Walking through the rainforest, with nature all around,
We see pademelons, kangaroos and a spiderweb.
My dad he says we're almost there,
We see a bridge up ahead.
We are wondering what secrets it may hold,
We hear some rushing water,
We knew it must be a river coming our way,
My dad yells here it is, my daughter.
At the bridge we saw that we were wrong,
It was not only a river, it was a waterfall too.
We took photos of the crystal water,
It was fresh and very blue.
A short while later we saw the sand,
My sister nudges me and says hush,
We can hear the crashing waves,
We race along the path in a rush.
A long line of bushes,
We run down to the ocean to roam,
My shoes come off and I feel the sand between my toes,
I think I am home.
