Not a Word

In the hot sultry summer sun along the white sandy beach she sat with pen in hand as her toes wriggled in the sand Touching her red ruby cheeks kissed by the warm glowing sun a day for dreaming dreams of islands in the streams As the afternoon slowly drifts away and the clouds come out to play not a word was written that day not one sentence to display.

Hello Phyllis … these are the days when the scene is mightier than the pen. The verse can come later. Nicely written Phyllis - Lindsay. PS: in v1-l4 is it tones or toes? Either one fits nicely.
