  LEFT BEHIND ON THE BEACH

The blue shiny sea smashing against the rocks

The brown tawny sand on the ground with footprints in it

The green leaves dropping from trees

Kids screaming around in the water

The sound of birds singing fine melodies

Left behind on the beach:

The salty water splashing in my mouth,

Shivering kids and sunburnt people.

People having fun in the water

playing volleyball loudly.

Left behind on the beach:

Kids jumping from trees

Laughter and fun everywhere I go

Kids talking softly to each other.

Left behind on the beach:

Kids running around carefully

Children playing touch and games while eating

Juniors making things out of sand.
