Beach Notes: Take Time

Beach Notes by Guest Writer Suzie Cheel


Friday saw me driving 600 kilometers (372 Miles) returning home after a great week of creative inspiration.

Instead of staying on the highway I took one of the byways and stopped to view a spectacular waterfall, lunch by a river under a jacaranda and take photos along the way.

Driving from A to B

usually focussed

on the time to arrive

does not allow

for meandering

along a country road.

Time to take in

the beauty of nature,

a field of daisies

a powerful waterfall

time to chat to locals

at the Fusspots Cafe.


Time to stop,

enjoy a view

take some photos

have a coffee

watch the passing parade.

Be in the moment.

-Suzie Cheel

Do you sometimes take time to be in the moment and maybe even take that fork in the road?

You can view photos from my meanderings at Take Time gallery.

    That’s great advice. Everyone is always caught up in the hustle and bustle! Take some time for yourselves people! :)

    I guess you should write few articles in allvoices (http://www.allvoices.com/) so as to raise awareness among people, as your writing is thought provoking and good.
