...a more sedate posting...

Laying out sprawled, Along the ocean’s edge, Awaiting the waves, To cover our nubile young bodies, Long before we go to our graves… Getting all soaking wet, Then running up & diving in the soft hot sand, Covering our bodies with the grit, Then repeating the process, A very good bet… Playing frisbee, Saving shells, Laughing at oldsters, Building sand castles, Living so far from life’s hassles…

Nothing sedate about this ode to youthful exuberance by the side of the sea.

Ed, God bless you for revising "On Ocean's Edge;" I have the greatest respect for you.
This one is a fun poem... The references to your "nubile young bodies" and then "Laughing at oldsters" gives it a touch of sad reminiscence.
I love the 2 ending lines, "Building sand castles, Living so far from life's hassles...

Hugs,
Connie

My many years with Authors Den will come to a close in May, thank you to all that has reviewed of me, I hope you all continue on to your own end...

Yep, it''s that time of the year again, break out the credit card...

Merry Christmas...

We all got em''...

The Saggy, Baggy Boobs Blues,

Growing up alone is not so bad...

Alone in life...

Memories I am Unable to Forget...

To wish for death...

I find it interesting that only in the wee hours of the morning is when I find myself able to write anymore... <br>

Rain, thunder & lightning, oh my...

Hey, I think I might have found a little humor...?

...NEAT...
