...what a beautiful day...


Poem Artwork

To the shore today I went,

A needed day to vent,

As well to see the sea,

Yes it was still there,

As well, hot & humid was the air…J

 

I walked into the water just a bit,

Not too bad, warm enough to swim,

But knew if I jumped in,

That first shot would have been nuts,

As well my cell phone would not have survived,

When a cell phone gets wet, it’s hard to revive…J

 

But twas a nice day nonetheless,

Worked at my friends store for a couple hours,

Just lugging boxes and puttin’ up with his jive,

He is my bestest friend & I love him dearly,

But damn if he can’t be the weirdest guy alive…J

Here's a tip for you: Leave your cell phone on the beach, and dive right in - it's marvelous to get wet!

If the ocean is “still” there. Why don't you make booze with it? But then, it's there, and you're here, and never the twain shall meet… Right?
