Midsummer memories 💕

Scattering the sandy shingle askew

Creating platforms on the seashore

Where footsteps of children with gaiety explore

Webbed imprints tells tales of before

As the briney breakers lapped the salty shore

Smothering their tiny traces from the sea

Lost forever with the oceanic debris

Gone like the little ones laughter and fun

As families with animals frolicked in the sun

Each and every new day was the same

In the bright sizzling sunshine beach worshippers came

Enjoying Mother natures beautiful beaches

Gorgeous girls in bikinis, bronzed boys clad in their breeches

Yet as the sun settled low in the haze of the horizon

With white sailed yachts, three tall mizzlemasts mizen..

Picnics and wind-breakers were packed-up and away

Along with the people and pets from their seaside play

Leaving their stories and memories behind

Majestic sandcastles, their turrets aligned

As the ebb and the flow of the torrent and tide

.sweeps over the daytime amusement to hide

Leaning the languished, lonely ashore
