welcome to la playa, the beach
A place to be
Warm in the sand and salty sea
So many cars driving across silky white grains
Getting stuck and needing a tow
What a show
Floating in the murky waves
To and fro
I’m a drop in the ocean
In this vast expansive sea
Grains of sand
No bigger than I
Brought to my golden-kissed skin
And lost in my car
We are infinite, connected
These grains of sand
Fill the light inside me
La playa, the beach
Left her mark on me
**Husband and I at the Gulf for a day trip before his competition***

So much fun spending time at the beach. The next best is reading poetry about someone else's time there! 😊💕
Beautiful, I love the playa . It’s so much fun 💗What competition does your husband enter in. The poem shows the fun in being on the beach 🏖
Beautiful poem and photo
Not me thinking la playa is a player and that your poem was gonna be about a boy who broke your heart, lol. Loved your poem and photo!
Beautiful couple and poem! ❤️ so glad you enjoyed your day at the beach.
