Atop a rock, there sits a girl. A hat adorns her head as she enjoys a chat with her young friend beside the pretty bay on this serene red parasol beach day. I breathe the salty air in through my nose and feel the warmth of sand between my toes. I listen to the squawks of gulls at play on this serene red parasol beach day. I walk along the shore and reminisce about lost love when I see sweethearts kiss down by the water’s edge not far away on this serene red parasol beach day. My parasol is blue, but it will do when finally I find the perfect view. A towel I lay right here where I will stay on this serene red parasol beach day Written June 25, 2016 for Eve Roper's "The Red Parasol by Alfred Glendening" Poetry Contest
