Poem Artwork


Today seems a good day for a ride to the beach,
Usually with regards gas & money it is out of reach,
I like going down with a few bucks in my pocket,
To nice a day to race down there,
So I will take my time & not drive like a rocket…

I will have the chance to walk by the ocean,
Speaking to her relaxes me & makes walking & talking one motion,
She of course is my forever mother,
No one can replace her, never another…

Not sure how long I will there stay,
Long enough for certain to on my beach play,
Such is for today my most fervent desire,
After a good night’s sleep, I feel very rested,
Tis not too cold, so I don’t have to layer on my attire…

Layering on your attire will make it all wrinkly anyway! Like they all say, "Have a nice day!"

7 miles in every direction and I'm in the good old Atlantic ocean. A little too cold for a stroll on the beach, those winds can really chill your spine. The beauty of living on an island.

Good for you! There is something about the beach that calms the soul.

Love ya!

Jane
