Seasonal Celebration Sunday #18
Welcome to The Seasonal Celebration Linky Party!
In the UK this weekend, we have been enjoying unusually warm summer weather. Thoughts turn to the beach and images of simple family fun: buckets, spades and clambering among the rock-pools searching for pretty shells. For me, this poem captures the essence of summer by the sea…personally, I can’t wait! What are your plans for this summer?
the change of pace that brings us there
the sense of vacation
maybe the smell of the place
the sights of the gulls, the dunes, the grasses
but oh it is the feel of it,
the crunch and slide of it
the feeling of beach sand
so different from dirt, soil, loam
no, not earthy, moist, rich,
but oh so granular and gritty
even when wet,
moveable paper spreading under toes
sliding beneath the soles
smoothing my skin
clearing my mind
unburdening me of the rest
drawing me to the tactile, the feel
of beach sand.
