The mid January day began clear and bright <br />To the Delaware Bay we took our flight <br />Down to the shores of Fortescue <br />With it’s sky and sea of sparkling crystal blue <br />Walked on the beach, brisk and cold <br />Collected sea glass, tumbled and rolled <br />In the air seagulls cry <br />How fast the time passed by <br />Left for home before fast falling night <br />A Blue Heron took it’s homeward flight <br />The day ended with a surprise <br />Hundreds of Robins flew before our eyes <br />In a field they began to sing <br />“We just arrived to welcome Spring! ”<br /><br />Nancy Chambers<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/january-treat/
