Another wave crashes upon the head
A cacophony of splashing water rings forth
Arms flail - hands grasp for solid leverage
Bobbing mouth gasping for vital breath
Spectators upon the shore scream for an inactive lifeguard
Otherwise engaged with a personal matter
Citizens intervene, rescue the casualty
Lifeguard alerted - dashes to the furor

Back in the water for you

Lifeguard alerted - dashes to the furor
