Down the Jersey Shore

Winding lines of cars Stop and go on black paved roads Driving down the shore Bright umbrellas pose Sitting on a sandy beach Lolling in the sun The smell of hot dogs salty air and creosote Float in mid-day air Little children play building castles made of sand near a deep blue sea A delightful book Floppy hat and Coppertone Fill a summer day A red setting sun Sunburned skin and tires eyes Tell it's time to leave Tail lights glowing red pinned against a blacked sky Guide the way back home
