Livin ' By the Sea

livin’ on  the beach in a hut by the sea 
green grass , warm gentle breezes and all kinds of lovely trees  .
I’m gonna  beat the heat to make my retreat sittin  by the sea
Cause its winter in the world cept livin  here with me 
I am happy to make your acquaintance 
And  i raise a glass to your health , long life and prosperity 
So peace my friends and welcome to the sea 
Where the music is  playin’ ,the sun is shinin’, the people gentle and free
No hassles from the man and no worries will make your day go bad 
Lay back and hear the music that wont  be sad
The sounds  will keep you cool listenin’ to the beat       
 The sun and the gentle warm breezes 
All the pretty girls in bare feet  paradin’ down the street
 where livin  is easy and laid back like u want life to be
 Plenty food and drink for you    man 
  To sing and dance the night away 
Come down to the sea and live your life away

Having never visited an ocean before, this poem was a delight for me to read! The vivid imagery made me feel like I was right there with my toes in the sand ... Wonderful poetry Jim!

What a life! We all would like to be living by the sea with the sun 24/7s, but for some of us it's not to be...got to be where the mula is made or we will starve to death. Nice write. One love. Joy Wells Soup Mail!
