Poetry: A day at the beach

by Barbara Adkins

Created on: April 14, 2009

You asked me for a date and

yes, was my reply.

I asked you how to dress,

you said,

your bikini and your smile.

I was smitten by your charm

and your playful boyish ways,

then we set out for the beach

to enjoy our first date.

We chose a place in the sand

to relax in our beach chairs

and as the girls walked by,

you never noticed they were there.

You were polite and attentive

for every need I expressed,

we laughed and talked for hours

until the sun was ready to set.

We walked down the beach

before we left that night.

You took my hand in yours

and I knewyou were Mr. Right.
