Seaside

As the waves ripple around my feet
I watch the sand and sea meet
Sea birds of every sort and kind
Swooping and diving for food to find

Children playing on the beach
Watching the water they laugh and screech
Fun running in and out
Oh how they really shout

The breezes blowing are cool
Moving every little sand pool
The day is ending the sun is low
Leaving the sea with a pleasant glow

Beside the sea

The crashing waves roll and roar
Before they meet the sandy shore
It’s an invigorating place to be
Also a wonderful thing to see
The sea birds screech and call
As the fishermen bring in their haul
Fluffy white clouds drift in the sky
As a lonely yacht passes by
Peace and tranquillity is everywhere
As I stop, look, stand and stare
