THE BEACH
THE BEACH
To walk along a secluded beach,
One’s soul it does beseech,
To find an inner peace and calm,
Beneath the shady palm.
The feel of salt upon your skin,
Relaxation does now begin.
To swim in the ocean’s water,
Just like a playful otter,
As you feel the waves wash over,
Your spirit it does makeover.
One’s mood it powerfully lifts,
As your mind it freely drifts.
As the waves pass on by,
To your cares you say goodbye,
To stay all day by the waters edge
For at least today I pledge.
To dry off in the warm sunshine,
To lay on the sand most fine,
Creates a feeling most sublime.
To stay here and lose track of time.
The warmth of the suns rays upon your skin,
Creates a happiness within.
A sense of freedom unending,
As the birds above are ascending.
Riding the wind ever so high
Against the blue backdrop of the sky.
Yes even in Winter the beach does call
Not just summer or spring or fall.
To rug up and go for a walk,
The ocean enjoy without talk.
One can walk for miles,
Escaping from one’s trials,
To find a soothing balm,
From the oceans’ peaceful calm.
To go at the end of the day,
When the night is on it’s way,
To sit in the sandy dune,
And watch the rise of the moon.
