A Day Out of School - Oil Painting Contest

Sand squigging between their toes Shorts rolled up to keep dry They walk the shoreline for who knows What tiny fish might swim by. A crab maybe might grip a toe Or a jellyfish might place a sting Yet, the water looks too grey Hope for something, anything! To keep those little boys intense A great way to spend a school out day Sandwiches were of no significance A happy day memory will always stay A day at the seashore, where you tell secrets to your best friend, you know he won't tell Cos he revealed his secrets to you called sharing thoughts, bad ones to dispel. When your grown up such days will stick in your memories of happy childhood times Bring a smile maybe to weary lips Seashore memories, when life was sublime. I used painting number 1 Dated 31 October 2015
