ANSWERS FROM A NUDE BEACH (REISSUE)

Imaginary poetic answers to an imaginary survey of nude beach users.      
     
How did you get to being able to go on a beach like this?    
     
I started with a bikini        
for holidaying by the sea,        
it gradually got skimpy        
further I grew past puberty.        
I graduated to a thong        
I wore topless one summer long.        
Next year, when first nude beach I found,        
it was not hard to come around        
to fitting in with its 'dress code',        
while thong in side bag would be stowed.        
        
 Since I stopped worrying about 'shortcomings'        
I could comfortably go without swimming things          
.        
Back in my native Germany,        
I swim nude in the Baltic Sea.        
        
 I started doing this in Sweden,        
it feels so near Garden of Eden,          
     
I discovered nature's thrill      
upon a beach in Brazil;      
such a naturist hotspot      
patronage was polyglot.      
Foreign bodies on display      
sometimes tempt to 'play away' -      
hook ups in each other's beds      
away from eyes of the feds.      
     
First time going au naturel      
was on a beach in Israel.      
I was already circumcised,      
so no fear being criticized      
by menfolk of the chosen race      
with whom I felt not out of place.      
        
How does it feel to be doing this first time?      
     
Swim at a beach naturist -        
tick off on my bucket list!        
        
What do you enjoy about being on such a beach?    
     
Feeling the elements all around        
while chilling to the tidal sound.        
        
It feels all so liberating        
to sun and swim without clothing.          
        
Class, fashion barriers forgot        
when all enjoying the sun hot.        
So socially equalising,        
there's no 'cut of cloth' criticising,          
        
Joining the ranks of birthday suits        
reconnecting with Eden roots,        
enjoying best of summer clime        
as if back at the dawn of time.        
     
It feels, oh so natural,    
outdoors in au naturel,    
one's shaky bits unconstrained    
by clothes in which they were contained;    
place to 'let it all hang out'    
without a shadow of doubt.    
        
Do you come with any ulterior motive?        
        
Looking for like-minded wife        
with whom to share some naked life!        
        
 Good place for girls to talent spot        
the fellas - no, not 'what they've got'! -        
but looking out for well toned hunks        
to chat up, without swimming trunks.        
        
I'm honest - look for naked totty        
who are well shaped in boobs and botty.        
        
How do you find the seawater?        
        
I like exhilarating thrill        
at first contact, when the parts chill,        
then the tingly warmth takes over,        
you forget your lack of cover.        
   
Does it do anything for your body image?    
   
I'm incentivized to keep fit    
so I can look like this sans kit.    
Rest of year I keep up regime,  
so I can look this naked dream.  
   
When I swim like this in the sea,    
I forget about gravity.    
My body is more than these two,    
I am reminded swimming nue.    
   
(He:) I'm your typical overweight male -    
she here jokes that I am like a whale,    
(She:) I tell him, 'Don't swim in Ahab's view,    
or he will painfully harpoon you!'  
   
Is there a tip you would pass on to someone thinking of doing the experience?      
        
Keep your eyes 'above the belt',        
then embarrassment won't be felt!        
        
Make sure to put on good sun cream,        
don't get all-over red extreme!          
        
Take some sunglasses for your eyes;        
not only helps acclimatise        
your sight, but they can neutralise        
where eyes are looking, girls and guys!
