Poem
Walking beside the ocean always fills me with emotion Reminiscing of that special day when first I saw your face You were swimming in the deep blue sea and passing by you waved at me I caught my breath, as time stood still, my heart began to race You swam into the distance, although I begged you not to go But deep inside I know you came to say you loved me so Since then I’ve seen you many times, such warmth you bring into my soul For each time that I see your smile it gives me peace just for a while That day had been our happiest, as we picnicked by the sea You said you loved me more than life, as you proposed to me I paused a little, for a joke; your sad face on, my dear sweet bloke And then we went in for a swim the sea so calm and warm within For just a second I glanced away towards the beach beyond And as I turned to talk to you, you were not there, you’d gone I screamed your name; I went berserk; my mind went crazy it would not work They searched all night to no avail; my life stood still, yours was curtailed But now we have this special time so poignant and so precious For when my heart begins to race I search for your delicious face I am the only one to see, your wave, your smile, you’re in the sea And one day you will take my hand, as I sit waiting on the sand Our time will come when we will swim, together as we always planned Written 3rd November 2018 For Competition Tell Me a Story 2 - picture 2 Girl on the Beach Sponsor Brenda Chiri 6th placement Contest Brian's Choice 3 Sponsor Brian Strand HONORABLE MENTION
