I did not quite expect,
On the beach, in the sun,
A visit from dinos
Puppeted by a man.
Granted these all were smaller
Than the ones I would fear,
But I still did not really
Want them too near.
My eyes must’ve
Been wide
As I waved
Him aside,
But two chairs
To the right
He sold three
With delight.
For the Lens-Artist Photo Challenge: Unexpected
Fun and unexpected! Loved the poem!

🙂 Thanks, Leya! Glad you enjoyed it. Just about anything made its way across the beach, and the photo proves it … 😉

Yah … it was quite the experience this summer. Especially given how all these ‘things’ are articulated and so they all kept moving in the breeze … yikes! 😉 Not for moi, but apparently there were those who found it quirky enough to buy … To be fair, they did look well made (from a distance … ;)).

Well that’s the most unusual beach sale I’ve ever seen!! Like you though I’d been waving him away, but would never have captured it so beautifully. Fabulous poem 😊

Thanks, Becky! He sure caught me by surprise with WHAT he was selling … These things were all ARTICULATED … which means they were swinging and moving in the breeze. … Nope. Not for moi … 😉 Works of art, really, just not my cup of tea … 🙂
Certainly made for a memorable morning on the beach for me …
