Walking is so much nicer than running! As I walked, the day was so beautiful! There were so many bikers out today, enjoying the fresh air! As the joggers pass me, I try to imagine what songs were playing in their ears. I think to myself, ”Why are you not jogging along with them?” I smile and think,”Walking is nicer”. I turn and for a moment I stop and see the water, and remember the sweet smell of the ocean. I found a bench all to myself, sat and enjoyed the view. The sun was warm, the air had the smell of the ocean. My mind returned too many yesterdays, I was a little girl. I would rush to finish my breakfast! I loved to run on the beach and chase all the birds. I hoped to catch one, but they were to fast for me! My cousins would laugh and thrown rocks at the birds! They were mean boys and I would yell,”Stop” They thought I was just a silly little girl! I loved running in the sand, it felt so wonderful on my little feet! When the evening came and the tide would go out, I would get my pail and shovel and run so far out. I would be so happy when I found my own clams! After a little while, I found I was always looking to see if the tide was coming back! My Uncle would see I was nervous and tell me,”Don’t worry sweetie we have plenty of time”.I knew he would take care of me. He would carry my pail back for me, and I would run after the birds! I would run up and down the beach chasing those seagulls! My mind returned to the present, I thought what a sweet memory! There was a little sadness, I wished I could be there again. I looked at the beautiful sun shining on the water, the seagulls trying to catch their meal for the day and I thought “Walking is so much nicer than running”! By Lydx
