Toes In the Sand

Sunlight faintly broke through the clouds
Waves churned with loud clangor on the sea
Fog flowed in a winding river down to the shore
I was lost in pensive thoughts, toes dredging sand

I was lost in pensive thoughts, toes dredging sand
Fog flowed in a winding river down to the shore
Waves churned with loud clangor on the sea
Sunlight faintly broke through the clouds

This poem takes me back to my Southern California days. Toes in the sand, shoes in my hand, pretty girl smiling at me.

When I saw your poem title I was reminded of the Zach Brown song "Toes" except I think in the song lyrics his toes are in the water and his ass is in the sand. Best of luck in the contest, Jenna. Hugs, John

Hi John, and thank you. It made me think of the Norah Jones song with the line, 'my feet don't touch the water.'
