It’s a shame I don’t take part in Wordsmith Studio’s Creative Prompts more often. Here I come, though, this week. The prompt is Support.
WSS Creative Prompt: Support, 03.10.2013
The wind was so high,
sand was getting everywhere,
Towels had to be pressed with shoes,
or bags
or our heavy bodies.
Our parasol was on the beach,
one of many –
red, and yellow sections.
We couldn’t raise our heads
as sand was everywhere.
The parasol just flew
to slump over a couple lying nearby.
Children were screaming with excitement
or who knows what.
Who will ever know?
I needed you to hold that parasol,
to hold my hand,
to press my shoulder to the
sand-covered towel
and stop my bathing top
from following the parasol.
