Today we are at the beach We are enjoying the day The waves are in our reach Loving all the wonderful rays We set up and sit in our chairsWe put a blanket on the sandThe wind is blowing at my hairWe sit down and we hold hands The birds are singing in the airChildren are talking and screamingLots of grins and many staresIt's beautiful here are we dreaming We rub oil on one anotherAnd share a simple kissWe are each other's...

"Take a walk with me," I sayHolding out my handYour fingers touch and mesh with mineWe head out on the sand Where the water meets the shoreIts grains so cooly packedLeaving pointed footprintsTrailing from our backs You look at me expectantlyAs if I need to talkI see the worry in your faceBelieving something’s wrong Now I start to wonderHow to calm your fearsErase the Ugly SpectreUninvited hereFollowing in our footstepsThi...

You surely feel it, too just as I do All this sudden heat from head to feet. Now I’m ready to bet we’ll start to sweat As down here we lay and prepare to play. Sand between our toes and where else, who knows? Above us clear azure sky a breeze, just a mere sigh. I reach for your hand feeling the wedding band. And now I linger caressing this familiar finger. We smile, eyes bright everything is so right For you and I so hot...

Walking along the beach staring out over the waves. The sun slowly setting As a gentle breeze blows salt onto our lips. I feel your arms tighten pulling me against you. My foot catches on something And I fall, landing on the soft sand. Looking back, I notice a bottle I pick it up and go to place it in my bag when I notice a piece of paper inside. Curiousity getting the better of me I just had to open it Tapping it gently...

Sitting here on the beach surrounded by our friends Curled up, in each other’s arms we listen to the crackle of the fire. Slowly we lean back Looking up at the bright stars And I feel your arms tighten around me As you pull me close. Slowly I turn look up into your eyes Feeling your warm breath against my cheek you slowly turn and brush your lips against mine. Gradually the kiss intensity grows and I feel you press harder...

Come now and walk with meUpon the edge of landWhere water greets the earthAnd washes on the sand. Let's stroll a barren beachAs midnight's toll doth chimeWe'll walk in the moonlightLosing ourselves in time. Under a bedding of starsAs glistening wave partsSoft whispers are spokenA communion of hearts. There we can clasp our handsChance to take an embraceAmbling down the shoreNe'er hurried in our pace. A saunter by the cres...

I walked on the beach today, Thinking of you, As the waves crashed My heart soared I smiled to myself Still remembering your whispers The words of a lover Giving his heart and soul Your touch on my body Your breath in my ear A love so giving Full of passion and no fear As I walked further The sun in my eyes I was blinded by the rays Not words of those who chastise You speak of tomorrow's Our future so bright Our present i...

SummerWalking hand in hand.Two young lovers.Screach of gulls overhead.Stolen kiss.Giggles looking at the dunes.Love blowing in from out to sea.Blanket and basket in the boot.Top down hair blowing in the sun.Snoop on the radio.Back before dusk.Two young lovers.Summer.

I went to the ocean the other day. To get in I had to pay. Into the lot I drove; Between the cars I wove. I looked and looked; found the perfect spot. Got out of my car. It sure was hot. The sun shone brightly. I treaded very lightly. My feet were hot when they hit the wet grass. I slipped and fell ending up on my ass. My blanket, towel and books got wet. I was at the beach so why fret. My girl stood there laughing at me....

My beach is beckoning. The tide is swimming in. With sand beneath my feet, Gazing out to sea, Breezes carry a kiss From your lips to me. Tides ebb and flow; Each day more will follow From my lips to yours To make a memory or two. On our sandy paradise, Hearts full of longing, With our tides rolling out; Seagulls soar. Summer breeze on our faces. This long passionate kiss; I will only need one. One day, I will gift you. Yo...

It was the first legitimate spring day of the season. The air finally warmed, the sun was out and there was not a cloud in the sky. I decided that rather than go to the gym and pretend to be a hamster on the tedious treadmill; I would call my friend James and see if he wanted to go for a run. He did, so we hit our local trail. It was a gorgeous day and about halfway through the run we decided to stop so I could catch my b...

An artificial stillness crept into the air around me, as sets of eyes waited for what was to come. My terror, growing from each stare, fastened its grip, constricting my breath until it was unbearable . I can’t handle playing for my family let alone a crowd. I needed to escape this asphyxiation; find somewhere, no, anywhere to go. Should I stop and just leave? But pride tethered me firmly to that warm sand, and there I sa...

Kelsey arrived at the Fort de Soto Sand Art Competition at twenty past two. After spending the morning walking four miles of the beach’s coast and counting all the dead fish she saw, she wandered over to the competition to watch the artists. The crowd was mostly parents with young children, the moms and dads holding up the kids so they could see the adults playing in the sand. A bay area news team covered the event, the c...

broken shells lie like so much flotsam on the morning beach, the remnants of small livesseemingly lost...seemingly insignificant...the truth is they are still life,just different now.they have been emptied by other sea lifeand left to drift,to collide with one anotherin the currents of a storm....or simply in the surf.today they provide broken beauty.the next high tide will move them to a new home, will take them to balmy...

Summer holidays aren't what they used to be. Everyone's into my baby brother now, which is fine, but it means I've got to look after my little sister. "Take Louise for a swim son." She can't swim. She's only six. She just paddles and cries if too much water splashes her face. There are some kids about my age climbing round the bottom of the big rock nearby, exploring its rock pools. They'd let me explore with them if I we...
