"Don't cry that it's over, smile because it has happened."


Waves come crashing to the shore,
I squeal when it splashes me.
You won’t think it’s a bore,
When you hear me laugh with glee.

I see a cloud of sand,
Swirling under the sea,
it’s close to the land,
Yet, I still want to flee.

Now I am completely wet,
I see a wave starting to create
And place my board, ready set,
It slips by and I am late.

Although the wave I missed,
And it was not the only one,
There would still be a long list,
Of my never ending fun.

I really like the imagery that you have created in this poem. for me imagery is one of my favorite forms of figurative language. you really captured the essence of the beach.
