Down by the Water

A Picture of Summer at an Estuary

By Daniel Perez Published 3 years ago • 1 min read
Lunch where the river meets the sea

Amazing how the sun came down

Blatantly warming every boat around

Calmly chasing that warm summer breeze

Dancing by the river trees

Every bird humming sweet little tunes

Far and wide with a sky bright blue

Greater days are a thing of legend

Holy rays shine from heaven

If only it could stay this way

Joyful being every day

Kites are flown out in a field

Lump charcoal cooking hot dogs on a grill

Mr weather man said it would rain today

No clouds nor rain could wash this feeling away

Orange juice and lemonade packed for a picnic

Park bench lunch with friends and relatives

Quintessential Atmosphere of a day by the water

Relaxing river flow at it’s very center

Swaying trees with green summer leaves

Tranquil beasts laying by the sea

Unspeakable joy the summer can bring

Vibrantly brightening everything

Waves that stretch on the golden shore

X-ed out tick tack toe squares drawn like the year before

Yellow straws in clean glass cups

Zenith is a summer day by the water front
