July's Delight

The evening's thunderstorms have brought the coolest breeze to the most serene sky of July... squealing seagulls swoosh down the foaming waves clashing on the bare,hot rocks; desperate and hungry seagulls searching and pecking... suddenly lifting with their sealed pecks wriggling fishes trying to free themselves; what a pitiful scene to watch! The playful collen,with spots on his well-groomed head, is finally let loose... from his tortureous leash, so glad not to have missed another adventureous day on the beach! The attentive dog sits and waits thinking, planning out his next move while observing that athletic,young man with a golden tan...and an incredible physique resembling a greek god, throwing the hard ball to the other player looking straight ahead; the canine suddenly runs so sure of catching it, but panting,stops half way so disppointed! The morning's light wind feels great brushing my dry and sandy lips... I pass by folks worshipping the sizzling sun, and adolescents greet me with spontaneousness; I wave back at them friedlessness, feeling good...reviving my joy,almost gone, so often not felt in that immesurable way! I continue walking further down to unearth seashells buried in the wet sand; if treasures are measured by value, these are the ones I'd rather have... and keep them as a reminder of a sea so blue!
