A Day At the Beach
Salt-spray glistens in the sunlight,
like diamonds in the air.
Sandals salvaging feet from the burning sands,
as the beach welcomes each new arrival, with surf-song.
Riding the waves on boogie boards,
the young build their bronze six packs.
On the horizon, boats buzz to and fro,
like little ducks in a carnival game.
A dry ocean breeze,
slides its invisible tentacles through everyone’s hair
and no one seems to mind; they’re all watching the distant dolphins,
leaping in the shimmering sea.
