A New England day clear and clean
Perfection personified and pristine
Crisp currents caress the shore
Singular spirits sprint and soar
An inlet sequestered from hearty gales
Spinnakers strapped with their sails
A day like no other selected for us
A gift from above in whom we trust
Slithers of sand and sinewy seaweed
Lie on the beach for all to see
Mallards and geese look for food
While empty nesters hold hands and seclude
Sunlight filtered into lavender and blue
Diamonds sparkle right on cue
Rocks define man’s attempt to segregate
Land meant for all who congregate
At the water’s edge to pay our respect
To this beautiful land left unchecked
The day ends where it began
A fiery ball permeates the sand
And warms my feet now calloused and old
For this simple man now young and bold
Ah—for a second I remember when
My life was pure and free of sin
