Excellent, as always! Congratulations on taking second place in the contest! I'm way behind in reviews--- (What else is new?)--
Love "light creases the horizon" --
That alone is worth the price of admission!

Ciao poet, you now have 5 votes.
From my parents' villa perched on a steep hill in Spain (Tossa De Mar), I had the luck to see the Mediterranean sea from your terrace.
The town was a 5-minute walk downhill and at night with my window open I could actually hear the ebb and flow of the sea.
The town is very picturesque and has the remains of a medieval castle.
The coast is very rocky and the beach is like in a cove.
I never went for a swim though. We had a swimming pool but I only dripped my feet in the cool water.
Reading your poem brought back happy memories when I still had my parents. Watching the video made me cry, though.

As always, pleased with your support and vote. Happy that my poem brought back good memories for you.
I only visited Spain twice. Both times my children were doing a semester abroad in Madrid, the other in Seville. Then I traveled about.

A beautifully presented 5-7-5 poem. The syllable count is accurate. This poem is colorful, and I like that. The message is clearly presented, and the font is large and easily read. Good luck in the contest.

A very nice poem for the writing prompt. I love the image of dawn being light creasing the horizon and then the slight shift to waves pounding on the beach. Well done.

Your poem PUTS US THERE on the beach "at the crack of dawn." I can both see the sun making its appearance and hear the "booming waves" pound the beach. The photo you chose to illustrate your 5-7-5 is perfect. Rod
