The waves crest,
the waves subside.
Over and over
seagulls dive.


Ships in the distance,
puff away.
Life on the ocean
makes a busy day.


Little crabs on the shore
hustle about and do their chores.
Sandcastle construction
every day,
keeps the kids busy,
deep in play.


Sands shifting direction
all the time,
make cozy dunes
for lovers to find.


Waves slapping
on the shore.
No one knows
where they were before.


The breeze and the sun
make the most perfect setting.
Memories will be made,
that no one will be forgetting!
