THE OCEANS BY THE SEASIDE

I wrote this poem for this wonderful lady at "THE SEASIDE R.V GROUNDS" in Ormond Beach Florida ( Irene Comtois ). Who now has passed on !

THE SOUNDS OF THE OCEAN
AND THE WAVES SPLASHING ON THE BEACH
THE GENTLE BREEZE AT OUR FEET
THE TASTE OF THE SALT
FROM THE MISTY OCEAN AIR
THE SAND ON THE BEACH
AS WE WALK IN THE HEAT
THE SHRIMP BOATS ALL IN A ROW
WITH ALL THE NETS IN A TOW

THE SURFERS AND TH SAIL BOATS
ALL RIDING THE SURF
THE BEACH FILLED WITH PEOPLE
ALL YOUNG AND OLD
LOVING THIS WONDERFUL EARTH
THE KIDS HAVE THEIR PAILS
AND LOOKING FOR SHELLS
WHILE THE MOTHERS AND FATHERS
ARE TRYING TO UNWIND

THE OSPREYS AND THE PELICANS
ALL FLYING BELOW
THE TURTLES ARE HATCHED
FROM THEIR NESTS
ARE NOW JOINING THE REST

WE LOOKED UP TO THE SKY
AND WAS AMAZED
TO SEE THE SHUTTLE
GO UP INTO SPACE

AND TO THE HORIZON
THE MOON WAS RISING
THE STARS SHINING BRIGHT
OH WHAT A WONDERFUL SIGHT
