A Beach Day

The blue water licks the sandy shore  
washing away many footprints.

the kids running down the beach make a splash    
moms are yelling-kids watch out...   
birds follow with delight.

We are having so much fun,                                                                        
in the ocean water and sun.                                                                           Look at little Tommy run,    
trying to shoot birds with his air gun.

now time to go home                                                                               
say goodbye to the ocean....                                                                  
sleep will come easy.
