Hunter Wellingtons by Samantha Wright

Hunter Wellingtons

Standing up straight I swept the hair from my eyes,
Breathing in deep I looked up at the sky,
Moody clouds breaking, the sun beating down,
I vividly remember that raw feeling of 'now'.

The tide crept in as the moon pulled tight,
My personal horizon spinning the light,
A web of glitter echoed by the sea,
As I sat on the beach just my Hunters and me.

The surf whipped up, the breeze blew cool,
Steadied by my soles I stood tall,
Leaning into the wind, my arms outstretched,
A precious moment I'll never forget.

Lungs filling up with salt pricked air,
I let the sea wash away all my worries and cares,
The rhythmic lullaby of the ever breaking wave,
I loved every moment of calm that it gave.

My Hunters walked me on, leading me back home,
The path winding to reality tired and overgrown,
Treading through the dirt and kicking up the mud,
I open the door and smile to myself - I'm feeling pretty damn well good.

Hunter Wellingtons

Fashions come and fashions go,
The weather changes too,
If soggy feet is what you fear,
Then Hunters are for you!

In all shapes and sizes,
They keep you comfortable and dry,
Whilst people in poor footwear,
Sullenly trudge by.

Around town or in the country,
And seen upon the Queen,
There's something there for everyone,
Not only classic green,

They're worn by fashionistas,
And style icons everywhere,
So for cutting edge practicality,
Rush out and buy a pair!

My toddler in the woods I follow
In muddy puddles she jumps high and low
Wet & cold mummy's feet
Oh, for a pair of dry and comfy wellies
My share of chocolate I would forfeit!
