I'd rather be swimming than anything else In the beautiful deep blue sea I'll finish my ice cream before it melts And dive in the water so free A warm soaking blanket wrapped 'round me The sand sinks between my toes Dad tosses me up and I say "WEE" And I'm wet to the tip of my noes The current is pulling me out to the ocean I feel like i'll never stop I go under water and it taste like a potion I come up and my body goes plop I climb out of the water and coverup And sit on my big beach chair I reach into the ocean and grab a 7up And fall asleep with out a care... Sadly it's time to say bye to the beach I really do not want to go I'll pack up my chips and finish my peach Now I have to go, I know  [This message has been edited by Marzy (08-07-2003 02:11 PM).] |

Welcome to Passions, Marzy. I really did like your poem. I love the beach, too. It's one of my favorite places.

Marzy, thank you so much for taking me "back" to where I grew up...just a few short miles from beach front to front door. And you brought back some wonderful memories of my daddy and me, as well. This is a very special poem...and I hope to see more, soon! |

  (big hugggsssssss) Awwwwww...I know just how you feel the beach is my favorite place of all and I want to live right by it, in a more tropical part of it and unwind each deserving day writing, drinking coconut juice and living the Jimmy Buffett or Caribbean dreamers life! This is a beautiful debut, sweet friend, I love it! Welcome to Passions, sweet Marzy, may you be inspired by all of us here as we will all be inspired by your lovely words! I can't wait to read more of your sun-shining poetry, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Mary, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |
