Just a Place of Freedom
December 7, 2010
I am from surfboards and wax
Board shorts, bikinis, and flip-flops
A place where sunglasses are a must
I am from the translucent morning fog
The crisp clean air
And the salty sea breeze when dusk begins to fall
I am from tan baby grains of rock
Which exfoliate my toes when I dig them deep
and lay perfectly under towels so cheap
I am from lunch under the sun
Messy French braids
And early morning runs
I am from sand castles and shovels
A sanctuary where sticks are used for writing
I'm from a place where there are no troubles
