At the Seaside

The waves creep along the sea bank
The night stands still as the wind whispers silently 

The palm trees sways in the distance
As their listen to the beat of the night drums

Silent night, all’s asleep 
As I wonder along the Marcus shores

Childhood memories come flooding in
Cheerful laughter, Happy faces, Children playing

As the moon smiled gracefully 
And the stars shone brightly

The cool breeze presses gently against my lips
As I recall my first childhood kiss.
