Sausage, chips and beans

Sausage, chips and beans
Just us
And then
A slow walk to the park
A swing on the swings
A look at the ducks
An ice cream from the van
If it’s there

The front seats at the top of the bus
If we’re lucky
Pick up leaves as we trudge up the hill
Mind the cracks
Splash in puddles
Tightrope on the walls
Feel the warmth
As we step
Into the hall

It doesn’t get better than this
You think
I smile
Knowing there’s so much more
But of course
You’re right
You’ve already worked it out
This is it
All we need
Nothing more.
