Macaroons on the beach...


Macaroon vendor, La Barrosa beach near Cadiz, Spain

Life is blooming
Life, so sweet
A million sunsets
Worthwhile living
Feel like eating
Macaroons on the beach
Their vendor, jolly
Just like out of
The Old Man And The Sea
Carrying proudly his wicker basket
His face parched with wrinkles
By the scorching sun
And the caress of the sea
Life is blooming
Life, so sweet
A million sunsets
Worthwhile living
Feel like eating
Macaroons on the beach
