The water looked refreshing,

As the waves hurried to the shore.

So inviting that I dove in,

And the heat of the day vanished.

 

Splashing to my hearts content,

Like a kid on his first outing.

There is nothing like the beach,

When the temperature rises.

 

Here I am and old man, but it's great.

Not a care in the world have I.

Not when I'm enjoying myself-

Let the world pass by, I'm content.

It sure is wonderful when we return to the waters of our birth. Especially when those waters are warm and caresses us with their gentle waves. You make me want to get back in the water again where I spent many lazy afternoons floating about on an inner tube without a care in the world except a pending sunburn. Now that's contentment!

Out there in the waves floppin' like a fish
Don't stray too far you could get more than you wish.
Well done, George.

To be content and not a care in the world. Just lying there on the beach and thinking good thoughts. - You are so different! You certainly know how to enjoy life to its fullest.
