I remember...

On hot stuffy school days…
My feet remember squealing inside my sand shoes as I ran down the sand,
My legs remember the plasticy, slimy seaweed wrap itself around them,
My body remembers my thick wetsuit rubbing harshly against my wet body as I waded through the crashing waves,
My arms remember contorting as I move the water out of the way the best I can,
My hands remember high fiving the icy cold wets ones of the parent helpers,
My face remembers the waves splattering my face with salty sea water,

My mind remembers the fun times at waihi beach.
