Green Patch

I remember coming to Green Patch as a kid
I remember its beauty.
It is in Booderee National Park
on Jervis Bay.
I didn't remember a place called Iluka in this neck of the woods though
We have an Iluka up on the north coast near our home town as well.

I remember the lushness and coolness

the pristine white beaches and clear green watersthe beauty and the wildness.

The boys and I went for a lovely walk

We wandered through the beautiful bush.

through different environments

found a seat in a creek off the side of a bridge,

admired the creek as we listened to the sound of the water and the birds

and enjoyed our unique Australian treasures.
