Notes About The Poem

September Challenge Tritina Poetry Contest- Sponsored by Andrea Dietrich

The Beach And Us

With the sun rising, it was a beautiful day to be on the beach 
My love and I, on a quiet morning- together, we walked 
The rise of the sun and the rippling waters were touching 

Timing was perfect- we were holding hands and our lips were touching 
As we stood on the shore of the sandy, white-colored beach 
Seagulls seemed to circle just above everywhere we walked
 
As the morning grew, and the sun in full bloom, again- we walked 
Then, we stood on the coast, still holding hands; still touching...  
together, we swam in the water of the sandy, white-colored beach 

Wet, we walked along the beach; touching lips- holding hands

You took me back some decades, newly married after 4 years together, my love, German Shepherd, Caesar, and me on the beach in the Keys enjoying our honeymoon. I know you don't have a dog in your poem, but you put one in my response to your words. A beautiful poem that truly touched me. One thing, watch out for those circling seagulls, they will bomb .....
