The windsurfers dance on the white caps
They're at the mercy of the turbulent sea
How they make it look so easy
As they catch each and every breeze

The sand receives such a pounding
As the waves invade the shore
Back and forth many times they travel
As they've done a million times before

The seagulls huddle closely together
Trying to keep warm on the sand
There aren't too many lovers here
Walking along the beach hand in hand

The sand blows unforgivingly
So very easily it stings my eyes
There's not much color in this day
Amongst the cloudy grey skies

Like a huge helping hand the wind pushes me
As I struggle on my journey by the sea
A brief patch of sun breaks through the clouds
And so warmly it envelops me

In the distance I see some children
Who send their kites way up high
A seagull struggles to stay in motion
Against the darkness of the sky

A blanket of darkness settles over the ocean
As the sun disappears behind the clouds
Hardly anyone is here now
Unlike the Summertime crowds

I wrap my arms tightly around me
In an attempt to keep myself warm
I now leave the angry seaside
As I can see the approaching storm
