The Jersey Shore In June

Jersey Shore was where my family picnicked every year Under the weeping willow with a spraying fountain near Nineteen ninety-eight we saw a bald eagle fly west Eagles always soar that time of year to their nest Though it was a chilly June we swam in the reverie Encompassed in frigid waters, we still enjoyed our family Elated we ate sandwiches and drank fresh lemonade Needing each other with laughter as in the sun we laid This tradition became a yearly custom in early afternoon Holding on the memories of the Jersey Shore in June Juneteenth Contest Edward Ibeh July 7, 2018
