ON THE BAY

Hot sun glaring down,

Sea breeze blowing around,

A beach filled with sand and colour,

A tree in the park in full flower.

Speed boats zipping in the water,

Everywhere there is music and laughter,

The smell of barbecue fills the air,

As the blue sky overhead is ever so clear.

The beach side is packed with holiday makers,

As the catamaran takes to the breakers,

Then the band starts to play,

And adds to the joy of the holiday.

Orders for corn on the cob covered with cheese,

Or sliced pickled mangoes, your taste buds to tease,

Add to the ever so perfect day,

As everyone enjoys Easter on the Corozal Bay.
