Surfer boy

A Poem by Julie McCarthy (juliespenhere)
"

Non fiction nonsense I am writing this as if I'm a young teenager from my youth spent at Avoca beach nsw every year family holiday LISTEN TO THE SONG HARVEST MOON BY NEIL YOUNG WITH THIS

"
My surfer boy
hey hey hey
 I met last May
a million years away

 His blonde bleached hair  all astray
All tousled with sand of the
long hot summer day

I was a girl who didnt swim much
I loved the sea and the rock pools
and of course walked to the end of the beach
with my friends and saw him only him

there he was alone on his wave
it was a hot summers day
my hair all long and wild
my bikini was black
all crocheted and skimpy


we waved to each other
as he came in on his wave
he ran to me with his surfboard on hand
he was my surfer boy
my one in a million
we kissed by that sunset
he held my hands

he said his name was Jeff
he lived up the coast and 
I visited him every year till i was twenty one
once a year i would see my surfer boy Jeff
we would have such fun
baking our bodies in the hot summer sun

he taught me to swim out in the deep
he showed me the urchins in the rock pools so steep
he taught me to windsurf alone out at sea
we even got a little catamaran
and sailed to an island with pure white sand

The years have passed
and i wonder where my surfer boy ended up
we lost touch in the eighties
I loved my surfer boy Jeff
I wish you nothing but the best
whatever life has brought you
i miss you thats for sure
that surfer boy on that blue ocean shore

The sea and love. Sweetest places we have known. I liked this poem. My best days were near the sea. Thank you Julie for sharing the amazing poetry.

How I miss the sea, and love how you brought back this beautiful reflection from your past. Your story rises on the waves.
