Watery Writing by Room One

Lucy
The Sea
As I stroll along the shore I feel the warm inviting touch of the sea lapping at my feet. The scorching sun burns down on the sparkling sea. The sun's reflection bounces off the depths of the sea making the ocean beam with light. As the clouds block out the sun it becomes dark and windy. The waves start to show their white froths as the breaker hits the black jagged rocks showering salty spray. The ocean has a bitter sour taste of salt. The sea reminds me of a road never ending, sometimes a break but always endless.

Sea
The brilliant blue sea
shimmers in the sunlight.

Its tumultuous waves
crash around you and
the weight of the water
thrusts you towards the beach.

Taste the horrible
salty sea water
and its gritty sand.

Rebecca
One summer's day I was at the beach when suddenly I heard the waves crashing on the soft sand and shells cluttering. As I got closer the sand got wetter, at that moment I felt the white foam come around my legs. Just then it splashed in my face. I could taste that salty sea.

The Sea
It looks rough with waves.
The sea tastes salty and is cold and wet.
It makes a roaring sound as it rolls in and hits the beach.

Ben
When the sea is shining and the water is glistening the sea resembles a water's jewel. Sea water has a harsh salty taste. Running your fingers through sea water feels like silky goodness and makes me feel relaxed.
On a calm day the sea is peaceful and quiet and on a stormy day it can sound like a fearsome sea monster. with waves crashing and roaring against the shore.

Natasha

Plish, plash,plosh. That sounds like the sea.

It's pretty, but it tastes no good at all!

I want to go to the waves, but it's much too cold for me.

A blue colour of the sea is the same as the shiny sky.

Luke
The treacherous sea swirls beneath my feet. The cold dark water is daunting with it's sharp icy feeling. While it thrashes and crashes against the rocks fountains of water are sent into the air.
I can taste the salt of the sea upon my lips.

Sally
Because the North Island is surrounded by water and has wonderful beaches, New Zealand has to be one of the best non polluted countries in the world. Water can sometimes be lots of fun but some waters can be deadly! Like the Wahine disaster and the tragedy at the Outdoor Pursuits Centre where seven people were swept away by a river and drowned.
Its shades of blue give it the Kiwi touch and beauty.
The salty air makes my mouth dry and thirsty.

When being knocked over by a monstrous wave you fall slowly to the bottom of the sea floor. Kicking and constantly blowing bubbles and mindlessly trying to get up, eventually you stand up on your feet gasping for air and stumbling onto the sand dunes in the scorching sun.

Sea
The fluffy ripple texture of the waves breaking over my tingling toes made me shiver with excitement. The moderate salty taste quickly rushed up over my face. And like always the taste leaves behind the unexpected thirstiness in your throat. And then look up and you will see a beautiful horizon and the sun setting behind the clouds. The sound of the waves crashing is an unbeatable experience like nothing before. When you get a chance to go to the beach treasure it very well and make it last.

Jay
The sea churns, curls and falls to its sandy grave.
The colour is a crisp darkened blue or sometimes a sickly green.
The taste of sea salt and sand flavours the water.
When I'm playing in the water I hear the loud rushing sound crashing into its icy hands.

Nicola
The sea sounds like thunder clapping as it crashes on to the sand.
It looks like a wonderful sparkly swimming pool.
When you walk into the water your legs tingle.
It tastes all salty and yuck.
