One step with my foot into cool blue water
one foot in, then another...
the water is chilly
I lay the surfboard out onto the water
waves desperately trying to push me back
Definite roar of crashing waves
in front of me
they look like three-story buildings
Salt water sprays onto my face like a hose
Sweet smell of the deep ocean
the further I move out
the deeper the ocean gets
rough sand
getting lower and lower
Waves start making me
up and
bob down out of the water
Behind me
a wave that looks like it could give me some speed
Quickly clamber onto my board
start paddling forward for the few seconds
The wave gets me
I rapidly pick up speed
this is my chance
I seize my opportunity
I stand up
flying towards the shore
sand rising as I come closer and closer
CLUNK!
The wave has got my body pumping with excitement

Hi Charlie 😀. What a great expressive poem. It is exhilarating reading it and it makes me feel like I am riding those waves with you! It certainly conveys how you felt during this awesome experience. Great work. Love Mum.
