A Day at the Beach

Sunlight shining bright on the gold blazing hot sand
The ocean full of dazzling crystals and diamonds that cover the land
I look around me and take time to enjoy the view
The sky's a bewitching blue
Surrounded by nature, palm trees and greenery
Shiny, hollow and enchanting seashells light up the scenery
People lying down, relaxing and enjoying the sun's rays
While others play in the warm, still and sensuous sea in many ways
Some riding the curved, crisp waves
I could stay here riding them for days
Fishes, seahorses, starfish and sea turtles
Astounding sea creatures emerging from the water below
Then I see the clock moving in circles
It's almost time to go
The games begin
Water bucket relay, limbo, seashell hunt and fly a kite
Astonishing and breathtaking sandcastles along the beach shore
Until the tide comes in and makes them no more
The sky turns purple, pink, red, yellow and orange too
The sun sets and it’s a beautiful view
