Three Beach Girls (possible repost, I can't remember!) Water so cool, blue and green Surreal and swirling so swift Floating along an ocean dream Three girls live just for this Adrift on the tide, out to sea A strong set of waves roll in Building, gaining in velocity Three girls shriek in harmony They turn to swim quickly away But the currents are too strong Glint of sun on waves at play No choice but to ride along They all catch the smallest one Crashing over the curling crest White water plunging three feet down Tumbling under and over They finally come up for air Heads of long hair in tangles They screech with glee, not a care heading right back into danger No matter that their swimsuits slip Tops sliding around to their backs Sand in their hair, they casually flip Just in case the boys are watching Three sea nymphs playing at sea Giggling, young and pretty They have no responsibilities This is what life is, they are hoping Race You To The Waves! © May 1999 Corinne Bailey |

Love it! Talk about a feeling of carefree and wild abandon! We should all be so lucky to experience that once in a while. |

Corinne~ You make this romp in the surf sound like so much fun .. I've been feeling the urge to head for the beach ... LET'S GO !  This was fun ! ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Thanks, Walt, Balla"dear," Martie and Marge, this was me and my two best friends, for several years we just went to the beach in the summer. I grew up in San Diego, 4 blocks from the ocean. Was exactly as carefree as you might imagine. And where I still go when I need to escape. Thanks for your comments, Corinne |
