Near the sand
Is where we stand
Watching the waves roll in
Soft earth in between
The seasalt air we're smelling
Still watching the swells spin
Lost in the sunset
Our ankles barely wet
Seashells lay not far off
Towels laid out
An umbrella turned down
Others used to scoff
The beach so warm
No possible storm
We don't want to leave
Hands intertwined
Our hearts combined
Enjoying each other's company
