The Lady By the Ocean

The sands on the beach
Are like the colour of her hair
As i sit by the ocean
All i can do is stare

The blue of the ocean water
Can never match her eyes
Despite our natures wishes
All she can do is try

The blue skies above her
Carpet her ceiling surround
Her posture of delight
In plentiful abound

Her body is slight and tanned
A joyous site to see
This blond beach lady in the sun
Gracing the land of the free

Such a lovely poem, James! I'm glad I stopped by for a few minutes and found this. Barbara and I will go to the beach today and try to put the tragedy of our friend's death behind us for a while. Your beautiful imagery brings the sun out! Love you, Carolyn

Very nice quatrain. I think you have been struck by cupid's arrow. :) I think you have to go to the ocean, don't you? Thanks for sharing. Best wishes, from your poet friend, Caroline.
