Get It Off Of Me!
Today I went back to the beach and had a strange time in the water. I usually wear beach shoes into the water and my vest shirt, not only to cover up but to warrant off any dangers in the sea. It is not always successful. Sea urchins can penetrate the soft soles and thing always seem to find their way under your clothes

Get It Off Of Me Got to the beach, the first time in three years Exhausted by the walk and the car’s shifting gears Then finally into the water and patiently I step deeper into the water but very slowly Took about twenty minutes to reach my chest Once there I dove under to wet the rest For a moment I thought my shirt tag was sticking me Felt it lower in my back and removed my shirt franticly On my back was a bee size creature that mom got away Fell to the water and swam to mom at her dismay Mom flicked it to dad, he got bitten twice by this bug
in the sea Eff he didn’t know what it was why didn’t he shout Get
if off of me! |
