Enjoying Memories Of Younger Days Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Dreaming of sandy shores, waves crashing upon them,
remembering Seaside Heights in New Jersey where I
used to hang out every chance I got.

Body surfing in my bikini, enjoying the waves with
cousins and friends, a delicious feeling of satisfac-
tion filling my being.

Loving times that we had, never forgetting a single
moment as we played and enjoyed the ocean, then walk-
ing on the boardwalk, playing games of chance.

Riding the rides, roller coaster going out over the
ocean, thrilling us totally, wondering if we were
going to suddenly go off the track into the ocean.

Other times walking beneath the boardwalk, enjoying
sounds of waves as they crashed against the pillars
and our bodies.

Always a wonderful feeling of accomplishment coming
upon me whenever thinking and remembering memories
I thoroughly enjoyed when so much younger.
