But its hard to imagine how it could be distracting.
Naked bodies of obscure shapes and sizes
Are oblivious to the impact on the observers.
The wrinkles, dimples and cellulite abound
But they seem to enjoy the freedom theyve found.
There are dozens of dogs of various breeds
Enjoying the company of owners, other dogs and the sea
Just like the camels their deposits they make
One must be aware every step I take.
Thats life on Cable Beach in the north west.
Yachts, tinnies and jet skis can also attest,
Enjoying the life of ease is the way to go
When work allows the time to pass slow.
Sorry folks, I tried to delete it because I put it on the "Best Places", but alas, you get it in 2 places.

Nice Poem Chris,
Did you write that?

Yes, Vic.
Writing is just one of my many, varied talents. Cooking breakfast for hungry ringers is another one.
I currently have a childrens' book being considered for publication, and I've submitted an agent's query for another non-fiction book I've completed since being parked up in Cairns.
When I went to the Kimberleys in 1996 I shut the filing cabinet of my Freelance Journalism, Public Relations and Media Consultance. But I never stopped writing.
I got a million of 'em! Cheers Chris

TROPICAL SUNSET ©
By Christine Thiel
The tropical sunset brings romantic notions
As I gaze across the rolling ocean
But the scene is incomplete
As I wriggle my toes in the sand beneath my feet.
The majestic palms sway in the breeze
The pollens make me sneeze
The aroma of frangipani wafting through the air
As happy couples stroll here and there.
Aquamarine tinted surf breaks on the white beach
My dreams seem out of reach
But the tranquil scene before me
Calms my life, previously stormy.
Camels amble along the sand in the sunset
The accompanying odour is hard to forget
Its said the ride is rhythmic and relaxing
But its hard to imagine how it could be distracting.
Naked bodies of obscure shapes and sizes
Are oblivious to the impact on the observers.
The wrinkles, dimples and cellulite abound
But they seem to enjoy the freedom theyve found.
There are dozens of dogs of various breeds
Enjoying the company of owners, other dogs and the sea
Just like the camels their deposits they make
One must be aware every step I take.
Thats life on Cable Beach in the north west.
