A Girl Standing on a Beach
A girl standing on a beach
Beach illuminated by the morning sun
Sunscreen and smiles filter on to the scene
Scenes of families, lovers, strangers, and friends
Friends playing in the waves
Waves lapping the girl’s ankles
Ankles splashing in the water
Water circulating the sand
Sand stinging her ankles as the tiny particles whiz past her skin with the oncoming waves
Waves cresting and colliding with outstretched, anticipating hands
Hands sheltering eyes from the midday sun
Sun rays heating the beach
Beaches dotted with umbrellas red, green, and blue
Blue engulfs all she can see
Sea breeze ruffles her hair and cools the hot summer air
Air cooling down and colors paint the sky as the sun sets
Sets of couples and friends leave with the receding colors, and stars begin to shine
Shining silver crests the waves caressing the beach
A beach filled with sand and a girl
A girl standing on a beach.
