Happy Mother's Day! However you spend it, enjoy!

Mother's Day

Waves go crashing one after one

Froth blinds in the upcoming sun

Crabs scurry into their holes

To avoid crowds with umbrella poles

Toddler squats with shovels in hand

Scooping, piling, and packing sand

From the shallows of Honolulu

Jet ski zigs and zags the deep blue

Children splash in incoming tide

There's waves to surfboard ride

An ice cream cart has two wheels

Man ringing bell announcing deals

Towable tube pulled by speed boat

Youth in inner tubes stay afloat 

A couple applies smelly sunscreen

On beach towels of aquamarine

While friends bait fishing hooks

Readers are lost in forgotten books

Volleyball served to the sound of cheers

But yelling family is all anyone hears

Woman with snorkel headed to shore

Scuba tank and fins, gear of hardcore

Teens with colorful rackets whack ball

Vendors set up fruity drink stall

Walkers stroll in search of peace

Others jog for stress release

Yoga and dancing appear to be fun

Tender skins bake and burn in sun

Outrigger with a six person team

Muscle fatigue of novice extreme



Woman with jewelry hanging from arm

Tourist admire intricate knots charm

Dogs of all sizes like the people they walk

Prance and bound between birds they stalk

I lounge away hours enjoying the show

Free entertainment from beach view condo
