Paperwork and a Beach

Date: 11/21/2016

I was sitting on some huge rocks above a beach with some friends, frowning at the height of the calm water, wondering why it was so high. I got up and went to my house--which was high up on a hill after the water rose up to touch my knees then sank down again. I was singing and laughing with someone, when I realized that I'd forgotten some really important paperwork on the shore, just above the rocks. (It was like a small stretched out lot of grass and sand.) I threw open my window and shouted to a group of elderly men, black and white, asking them if they'd seen my paperwork. They had! One man held it above his head and kindly offered it to me. I raced back there as fast as my legs would carry me, hugging the elderly man and thanking him. Then, after a breif exchange, I started walking home again.
