It's great to have a break - by Ben van den Akker

Just a little walk

Through the gardens

Over by the lake

It’s great to have a break

Talking all then while

As we walk a mile

Pass many people

All with a smile

It’s great to have a break

From the TV monotone

Out in the fresh air

Without a care

The sun shone brightly

Caressing against the water

Reflecting the trees

The green grass

And all you can see

It’s great to have a break

As this is all it takes
