Seldom do we have such a perfect match of a picture and a poem, but here is a sunrise captured in words and graphics created by Holicong students.
Beach Day
Early morning,
Grainy sand clinging to my feet,
Waves lightly coat my toes like a watercolor painting.
Crystal-clear tumbling waves,
Towels whipping in the wind,Beach toys sprinkled across the sand like crayons after a kid has scribbled with them.
Seagulls screeching in search of food,
The smell of salty sea water,
Tall dune weeds sprout from the ground like brushes from a cup.
Colorful umbrellas providing shade,
Glasses protecting my eyes from the sun,
Pinching lotion from a bottle like trying to get the last few drops
of paint.
Storm cloud-grey fish swim about,
Rock barriers between sections of beach,
Shells scattered across the sand like splatters on a canvas.
The beautiful Sea Isle, New Jersey.
That picture blew my mind! I think it is competition with Stary Night by Van Gogh! It is like a sunset and sunrise at the same time! Crazy ya'll.
