One Afternoon at the beach-2/5/07 2:30 pm
Rubber floaters everywhere
Cartwheels on the sand
Half-naked figures, young and old.
Binoculars capturing close up view of distant motion
Children huddled together
Splashing, shouting, swimming.
Kling!Kling!Kling! so the bell goes
Inviting watery mouths to savor home-made ice cream.
Bottles and bottles of malt and ale
Under the hot sun
One child looks very pale
Everyone else you hear the sound excitement and fun.
An infant taking a nap
secured and contented on her mother's lap.
Aroma of barbequed ork and grilled fish
To taste it , oh how I wish!
Sun caps, sun glasses
Beach towels small and large
People keep coming, they all seem to barge.
The water looks warm
I can feel the sun"s cool breeze.
At a distance
White -painted boats docked
Near a pile of rocks.
In a corner
An old woman all by herself
Awed at the sight right before her.
Seaweeds, a young boy wear it as a wig
Or was it to protect his head from the hot sun?
Amidst the run-down shacks
A throng of artists gather to plan
Future exhibits and subjects to paint.
Seagulls or flying sword fish?
Hovering close by.
A wooden board
This young boy is holding
Wishing it was areal surfing board.
Cartwheels on the sand
Half-naked figures, young and old.
Binoculars capturing close up view of distant motion
Children huddled together
Splashing, shouting, swimming.
Kling!Kling!Kling! so the bell goes
Inviting watery mouths to savor home-made ice cream.
Bottles and bottles of malt and ale
Under the hot sun
One child looks very pale
Everyone else you hear the sound excitement and fun.
An infant taking a nap
secured and contented on her mother's lap.
Aroma of barbequed ork and grilled fish
To taste it , oh how I wish!
Sun caps, sun glasses
Beach towels small and large
People keep coming, they all seem to barge.
The water looks warm
I can feel the sun"s cool breeze.
At a distance
White -painted boats docked
Near a pile of rocks.
In a corner
An old woman all by herself
Awed at the sight right before her.
Seaweeds, a young boy wear it as a wig
Or was it to protect his head from the hot sun?
Amidst the run-down shacks
A throng of artists gather to plan

Hovering close by.
A wooden board
This young boy is holding
Wishing it was areal surfing board.
