Beach days

Long bright sunny days, days of beach and sand
Sun hats, bucket, spade, ice cream in your hand

Castle moats, sailing boats, rocks and skimming stones
Shells up to your ear make different sounds and tones

Rock pools, crabs and clams, fishing nets and wait
See what we can find with a bucket full of bait

Beach balls, boogie boards, a walk along the shore
Flying kites in the breeze, let go and watch them soar

Sun lotion, wet towels, sand stuck to our skin
In the water, lukewarm, washed off with a swim

Long days, sun-bleached hair, golden skin all tanned
Sun cools, sun sets, shadows in the sand
