We wake up with the waves
Beating a tune on the shores
It is gray as it has been for
Most of the month. The sun
When it shows is bright and
Warm. We are supposed to
Get our share of the sun in
The next few weeks.
The water will be warm enough
To swim in. Seeing this relieves
Us from the anxiety we were
Feeling as we are expecting
Guests and do not want them
Feeling that they were cheated
From their week on the beach
Life goes on regardless and if
The weather is great we will
Be very happy. It has been
Over a year since we have
Seen them, but we do talk
Once or twice a week.
California is bathing in
100 degree temperatures
While we are basking in the
Seventies. You have your choice
Pick your temperature knowing
That it is an either or situation
I will take the waves and seventies
Not everyone agrees but that is
The way of life. The week will
Fly by and we will have to say goodbye
For a year. All the anxiousness
Will have bee for nothing
