a view from my perspective while people watching on the beach.
turbulently tossing abandoned shells,
scattering them across white sand,
impregnanting the air with fishy smells.
Golden haired children and waves dance
together, playing a game of "Keep-Away."
Sand pails and shovels make castles
built by croched cherubs delighted in play.
Mothers and fathers watch their young,
lathering sunblock across tender skin.
Aromatic scents of coconut
wafted softly among strangers and kin.
Tanned taught bodies of teens displayed
stroll along, ogling each other,
hoping that attraction unites
couples intrigued by one another.
The ocean and beach create unity
among creatures from sea to shore,
sating the senses with delights
revenously consumed and wanting more.
The sand, the sea, the changing shore
in balance by creation's plan.
God's infinite wisdom prescribed
that all nature is molded by His hands.

Seaside Delights
Emearld waters rush to shoreturbulently tossing abandoned shells,
scattering them across white sand,
impregnanting the air with fishy smells.
Golden haired children and waves dance
together, playing a game of "Keep-Away."
Sand pails and shovels make castles
built by croched cherubs delighted in play.
Mothers and fathers watch their young,
lathering sunblock across tender skin.
Aromatic scents of coconut
wafted softly among strangers and kin.
Tanned taught bodies of teens displayed
stroll along, ogling each other,
hoping that attraction unites
couples intrigued by one another.
The ocean and beach create unity
among creatures from sea to shore,
sating the senses with delights
revenously consumed and wanting more.
The sand, the sea, the changing shore
in balance by creation's plan.
God's infinite wisdom prescribed
that all nature is molded by His hands.
