Tag as favorite"I Love" 
By Meredith G., Medford, MA
summertime
a smile splits my lips
as cool water
drenches my body
hot as cajun
the waves
i welcome like friends
with opened arms,
we dance together
the salt water pleases my tongue
as i run from the ocean
splashing drops
like magic dust
the sun
warms my back and
the soft sand is like
a goose down comforter
my toes dig deeper
into the sparkling chips
feeling moist
from the dampness of the sand
my ears
hear happy melodies
laughter
together
the echo of pleasure
i savor
the oreo-cookie ice cream
as it drips from
the sugar hat
leaving,
the ball of fire
simmers in the west,
i take home a pinkish glow
