Tybee Beach
 
Unforgettable View
by Jason Tomlinson

I took some mental pictures today that I want to lock in my brain
images to easily access and recall on a trip down memory lane
since I didn’t have the tech necessary to photograph in the ocean
and there were significant memories made packed with strong emotion
you see a bunch of us were having fun out there in the water
extended family my wife my big boy and my daughter
but my little boy – my two year old – just didn’t wanna get in
he couldn’t shake his fear of the water and relax to take a swim
but today he did! today he let go of his fear
in his mother’s arms he found his happy place – what a joy to be so near
what a joy indeed as I got to hold him too
my little fella splashing with mommy and daddy – what an absolutely unforgettable view!
