Sea Haven Delight

Our beach house, Just for a week, A week that goes so slow, But way too fast, A week of no responsibilities, One week of no worries or cares, Of laying in the sun, Of playing in the surf, A week of peace, At the Outer Banks, With my Dad's side of the family, Not as close to the beach as previous years, But a beautiful house, Too big in my eyes, But large enough for fifteen people, Warm southern sun makes me want to stay, A cool breeze off the ocean is perfect, There is no place in the world that I'd rather be right now.

It's a beautiful poem that pays tribute to a beautiful week. Thanks, Amelia! AND there was no place I'd rather have been than at the beach with you!
