Sitting in the middle of the lake,
relaxing on the boat.
Soaking up the sunshine
while enjoying the light breeze.
Talking with the family,
and brushing away the sand.
Stepping on the sand,
as I jump into the lake.
Splashing the family
who remain on the boat.
As the waves moved in the breeze,
they reflect the sunshine.
The heat is radiating from the sunshine.
The trees are buried in the sand,
swaying in the breeze.
The depth of the lake
was apparent from inside the boat.
Quality time unmistakable with the family.
The smiles and laughter coming from the family,
along with the ever lasting sunshine,
made the time in the boat
priceless. The pebbles and the sand
stuck to my feet, and the lake
was calling my name. Our faces welcoming the breeze.
The quieting of the breeze
sent a message to the family.
It was time to ski on the lake!
The glaring of the sunshine
bounced off the sand,
blinding everyone on the boat.
The rocking of the boat
knocked against the dock, as the breeze
lightly touched the water. I sat in the sand
as the family
soaked up the sunshine
and played in the lake.
The boat sat quietly as the family
enjoyed the breeze. Clouds bringing a welcomed break from the sunshine,
as the sand sank into the lake.
Great job using all the visuals. I'm not one for the beach, but will all the visuals you used I wish I was on a beach right now!
ReplyDeleteOoh! I'm a fan of the final stanza. There's a bit of personification in play here, with the boat sitting quietly. I also like the last line. Perhaps it's simply setting description, but it also speaks of larger ideas...time passing (almost hourglass-like), and there's the sense of tides rolling in. One could read it metaphorically for sure.
