My deep thanks, Bill, you're so kind. I really love the poetry of both you and Sara. You're both so gifted. My family and I have friends in Magnolia,TX. My late husband Mike spent his high school years in Nacogdoches, and we keep in contact with his friends who went to school with him there. They moved to Magnolia a few years ago. Will be following you & Sara's poetry too. ~

I enjoyed reading this one. I bet some of those bathers went away with some painful sunburn. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by my page. Sara

I can feel the heat, see the bathers and feel the excitement of seeing the dolphins and also the dolphins playful excitement. It’s like a 3-ring circus at the beach :) God bless you, dear Gina!

Thank you so much, Anne-Lise. I'm glad you got to swim with dolphins, they are truly the angels of the sea. When I was in Navy boot camp in Orlando, Florida, I got a one day pass to Sea World. There were a few dolphin petting tanks. I gently petted one, it was a joyful day. Thank you for taking the time to read my poem.
