In the Blue

Life is like this...

In the Blue

C. Lee Battaglia

 

Excited you are

You shout, “We’re going to the Blue.”

You put on your suit,

Lather your self with lotion

Then walk down to the Blue

 

The sand feels nice on your feet.

Not to hot,

And not to cold

You grab your board

And watch the swirling blue

 

You start to paddle out

As the waves crash against you

You start to fall back

It takes a lot of effort to continue on

Soon you catch your very first Blue

 

You fall in the Blue

Trying to surface

But another Blue pushes you down

It takes a lot of effort to continue on

Soon you’ll resurface

 

You paddle out soon

Everyday

Getting stronger and stronger

Now you’re able to fall in the Blue

Without the frightening fear of giving up

 

Take your time and you’ll be free

No one ever starts out fast

Be the person to make your own goals

Strife in life

And expand on your dreams
