Hovering a blanket of soft sand,
my tiny fragile tickling toes do land.
The baby waves all marine blue,
with white gem-like bubbles so sweet;
At first, not I had a clue;
They had come to the shore to greet.
"Hello! Hello!", they started to sing,
as my soaked clothes began to swing.
At the edge of the pure sand,
with the cool quiet breeze along,
my skirt danced hand-in-hand,
listening to their favourite song.

As my little arms steadied to stand,
near by I found a pretty sea shell band.
All at once, I heard my name,
being called far from the blue seas.
"Surely, I haven't such so fame,
who knows except the great bees?"
Said I, not knowing the calm voice;
My feet bursted up, to take a choice.
It was the sun, that's so bright,
wearing a gown of golden dye,
melting the last ray of light,
it dipped low, saying "goodbye!".
Enjoy & have fun!

The Cornish shore …
Where golden sand lies next
To dappled grey granite rock,
Where the sea breeze sweeps
And the mussels flock,
Where the rock pools gather
And the small ***** patrol,
Where the white foam curls
And the breakers roll,
Where the sea birds call
And the salt spray stings,
Where the seaweed sunbathes
And the limpet clings,
Where a stream’s course meanders,
And reflects the azure sky,
Where a starfish gazes skywards
And white clouds go scudding by.

By all means take treasured memories,
But please take nothing more,
And leave nothing but your footprints
On this sacred Cornish shore …
Cornwall is my homeland and l lies on the South Western most tip of the UK and is largely surrounded by the sea and its beautiful coastline.  Anything which comes from Cornwall, including its people, is/are described as Cornish. Cornish.  Cornwall is 'Kernow' in the Cornish language.

Sea oats rustling
As salty gales drive ashore
Forever dancing

Had a dream that
Bob De Niro
And
I
Stole a car.
We cruised the
California
Coastline.
It ended in L.A.
It ended abruptly.
And
Freud
Would have a
Field day.
I’d
Simply smile with
The sunrise.
Didn't want to wake up; thought we'd maybe rob a truck or something.
Jacob Traver May 2014
The coastline I walk, I walk not alone.
Solitary strolls, I do not condone.
I'd rather walk, hand in hand,
With you my love, upon the sand.

The pier we see reaching out
Into the ocean, gives no doubt
Of our love's walk off into the sea
Where we drown in the depths of our eternity.

Let not the waves disrupt our affection.
Wake in the comfort of our perfection.
Though gulls will call and sandcastles fall,
You will remain my all in all.
Day 3 - To You
