    A new sunny day has just begun. The beach is silent‚ but only for a while. Very soon crowds of people will flood on to the beach. The bright‚ burning ball blinds and rises like a sunflower on the distant horizons. The subtle sea sparkles preciously as it strolls up against the shore spilling the previous day’s remains. Crashing against the shore‚ small waves flash the night’s debris onto the beach. Untouched golden sand‚ so soft and smooth‚ glistens; reflecting the sun’s rays. A soothing‚ light

    The beach is a place by the sea. There is soft sand‚ and gentle blue waves. The ocean licks the shore‚ keeping it continuously wet‚ like a young child having their first ice cream. The water is blue‚ like the cloudless sky. There are rock pools‚ and beautiful shells. On the shore there is washed up stretchy seaweed‚ and dried crunching coral. In the sky‚ the sun shines and seagulls fly. Further along‚ waves lap against rocks. Hitting the rocks‚ the waves are cymbals in the orchestra of the ocean

    AT THE BEACH(another) A draught blew by me taking my spirit with it. The strands of hair crossed my face; the sun peaked its way above the horizon as if it was scared to shed some light.

The sand was a mine field of corals‚ with a collection of many different multicolored sea shells; however at the same time‚ the sand was a bed of blankets. The way the sand flowed onto my feet and out to the spaces between my toes

The first reason I liked this story is because of its futuristic setting. The story is set in Venus in a jungle where all it does is rain.
