Come with me to the beach




See the colorful waves that are as blue as the sky,
splashing on the round rocks,
that are as round as basket balls;
the kids running as fast as rabbits,
with their colorful multicolor swimming suits;
a big umbrella as big as a tuba,
sitting on the golden looking salty sand;
people smiling with huge smiles,
that look as long as the river Niles

Hear the man yelling as loud as an air horn,
stretching his arms to sell brand new cell phones;
kids laughing as loud as out off tone violins,
all carrying a red bucket of golden sand,
that sounds like maracas,
with beans bouncing inside,
making a cha cha cha noise;
a foreign man sneezing with a running nose,
sounds like a trumpet with a pebble on its throat;


Feel the gentle cool breeze,
that you can experience when you open the fridge;
the warm pebbled sand,
that burns as a baked potato when you leave it in your hand;
feel the sun rays toughing you as hot as the microwave rays,
the wet cream in your hands that feels like wet soft mud,
that protects you from getting burned,
feel the warm water splashing through your face and legs,
that feels like a blender tossing you from side to side;


Smell the humidity rising through the air,
that smells like a perfume of mint,
the hot corn on a stick as juicy as a lemon,
being sold by a poor man with dirty smelly clothes,
that smell like rotten onions;
smell the sandwiches being passed around,
smelling like fresh cool peanut butter and jelly,
Smell the warm cool breeze,
that only makes the foreign man sneeze;
but do not try to smell under the water,
it just smells like a pebble,
as big as an acorn,
being stuck on your nose!


Taste the bitter golden shiny and salty sand,
which in fact tastes like salty sweat;
taste the happiness and joy,
that surrounds the miles and miles of beach;
taste a sudden surprise that you may get,
when a wave crashes on your way,
mostly if the wave is as large as a mammoth;
