The Beach House

What a day of fun and sun As the sandbar ebbed closer to the shore Allowing family, friends to wander the depths without Fear of the unknown, without apprehension The sun stayed bright upon us Allowing us joy together, unified finally Not in name only, but in spirit and in time spent Days like this are those, memories are so well made of Smiles upon everyone’s face remained Through to the sunset of the day and even past Permanent in our lives and every new tomorrow No time was ever better spent, than time with family Dinner then became an oratory circle As children ran, playing, laughing, joyfully responding Evening became games, more fun, talking and sharing of hearts As words became this family’s new outlet for joy Ah, summer at the beach this year Was more than a vacation or time away But became a lasting imprint on the heart of love As now, I look to be with my extended family again next year
