Had the most amazing adventure
All around Mount Billy Conservation Park
Parked beside the Hindmarsh Valley reservoir
Headed up the road toward the trails
It was such a beautiful afternoon
Glorious sunshine; fresh air; serenity
It was uphill all the way as we headed out
A gentle slope to say the least
But as we travelled further up
I found it quite an effort but
I managed to tackle and conquer the beast
Beautiful paradise; natural bush
So amazing; so green; so lush
Picnic lunch in the clearing
We'd scattered a mob of roos
Sent them pounding off you see
As we enjoyed the amazing views
The steepest climb was yet to come
As we headed off again...
On-wards and upwards; what a walk
I was amazed at how I coped
Didn't think I'd make it up there
But was pleased to find myself
At the very top; heart pounding
Lungs straining from the heights
Ah the joy at reaching the top
I simply refused to stop
Slowly but surely I advanced
Thankful for the peace and beauty
Surrounded by this blessed nature
Birds singing; native bees buzzing
Shingle back lizard; sunbaking
Clouds above me; floating by
Feeling on top of the world...
Thank you Lord for a blessed day
