The Beaches of Madagascar

I was walking along the beaches of Madagascar,

With my mind deep in thought.

I feel the warm, brown sand between my toes.

I feel the waves of beautiful blue water across my feet.

I look down to notice the most beautiful seashell I’ve seen.

Its beautiful red color reminded me of a strawberry.

A beautiful seashell, a Strawberry Top,

Found as I walk along the beautiful beach.

** The NaPoWriMo prompt for today was to use at least one seashell name provided as inspiration for the poem. The poem did not necessarily have to be about seashells, but after looking at these shells (Strawberry Top), I wanted to use them as shells in my poem. Below is a picture of a beach in Madagascar. So pretty! **
