A little girl sits at the edge of the sea
Digging for creatures in the cool, wet sand
The white-haired child with sun kissed cheeks
Unearths the sand monsters that dance in her hands
She sends them back to their underground world
As the waves leave behind a whispering foam
Enchanting deep water of weed and pearl
Spellbinds the small child who walks alone
The sand illuminates around her feet
Each step casting rings of gold
The sky in a blaze of folly pink
With the snow moon seducing her soul
Only the 2nd poem I've read of yours, and both feature the ocean! Having lived at the beach for the past 25 years, I'd say your descriptions are excellent! May your attraction to the ocean, and your writing continue!
I grew up in a small fishing town in Florida and the ocean is a huge part of who I am. Thank you so much for reading!

Hi Carol, A wonderful poem. Exquisite one: the waves leave behind a whispering foam what an image! ! ! I think I am able to hear the whisper of the foam while reading the poem..... That's about waves foam sea and nature. Now, to just see how nature celebrates childhood: Enchanting deep water of weed and pearl Spellbinds the small child who walks alone The sand illuminates around her feet Each step casting rings of gold The sky in a blaze of folly pink With the snow moon invoking her soul Loved this poem. Thrilled! ! A 100+++

A soliloquy cogitating on the child hood memories And reliving it in poetic form Explaining the beauty oft he sand and the sunkissed cheeks Whispering foam, enchanting water if weed and pearl, illuminating sand in the sunshine. This is simply marvelous poem. Thank you dear poetess.
