A funny day for a stroll!

The suns gone out, the rains come in,
The ducks snuggled down, chicks under wing.
The camera focuses, takes a shot,
That’s no good, It’s water splashed!
Hatton lock’s, there’s twenty one,
two and half miles,
shouldn’t take long!
Off I stroll and enjoy the day,
now it starts to blooming hail!
Wish I stayed home in bed,
nice and warm,
watched TV instead!
Under bridge, keeps me dry,
quietly watching the dragonfly!
Rain gives way to dismal clouds,
best foot forward, I’m off again!
Narrow boats pass, people smile,
the ducks quack back, their not so shy!
The end I found, the bottom Lock,
now turn right round and walk on back.
Not much point there and back,
well it was a muddy stroll for the day!


Half way point.
