Wind plays with my hair
I sit in the sand as a silhouette
While the sun kisses the surface
Of the sparkling ocean behind me

My bare toes sink deeply into the earth
As the tickling sound of waves
Dances through my mind

Past the waves is an endless world
The calming, mysterious view is breaktaking
Nothing compares to that deep blue

The sun is setting, ready for bed
The deep blue is alive
Teasing the shore as it comes in to say hello
But only temporarily

Crashing waves are artists
The sand is it’s canvas
Creating the most organic, natural artwork
Sanctuary lives here
Untouched by man

I'm lucky enough to live right by my favorite place: the beach. One morning after a walk, I decided to sit down and write to capture the moment.
