Lake Michigan

This chilly water I am sitting in. Could it be Lake Michigan? Slimy minnows in spurts. Sharp stones that poke and hurt. The sand is a bit harsh. But exfoliates if you’re in a rush! The breeze is a bit chilly. The seagulls are a bit silly. I get tangled in the seaweed. And splashed by boats that speed. But when we get tired, we always find the perfect tree. A picnic lunch, with the best food you’ll see. Until the wind tears our blanket away. And that’s the end of our beach day!
