Before The Day Turned Into Night Poetry Contest
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sitting on sand under the sun,
watching my grandkids having fun,
I observed how sanderlings can
be so close to us when they run.
It was such a warm summer day.
Looking at the sea gulls at play,
at the sun glints from the sun’s rays,
at the sea’s blue hues on display.
While admiring the awesome sight,
my joy, delight turned into fright.
I recalled the Galveston’s plight
before the day turned into night.
When the sea surged, thousands perished
The same sea that I just cherished…
