THE SEA
I walked along the beach, feeling so alive and free,
Peering at the whitecaps, as they approached me!
Sunrise! Fresh air!.......sand between the toes!
These are some of Nature's best offerings, I suppose!
Gathering shells, that have been roughly tossed there!
Cool breezes blowing and twisting my short, dark hair!
Seagulls calling to me, as I meander on by,
While their mates and friends glide, high up in the sky!
A lazy, dreamy morning, is just so appealing.....
Brings out the best thoughts, that I am presently feeling!
Water!! Water!!.....as far as my eye can see!
Huge waves, crashing and splashing over me!!
Sky meets water, on the horizon line!
No sign of human life, which really suits me fine!
Nature....unspoiled by human imperfections,
Attracts my attention.....in a million new directions!
