The tang of sea mist sprays my face.
While on the beach, sand crabs race.
White-green foam caress my toes,
It churns in sand and slips away.
August sunshine on the beach.
Under umbrellas it cannot reach.
Oh, the joy of a summer day!

I wrote this during a uninteresting history class. It's about a simple memory from some beach vacation from when i was around seven years old.
