Seaside
On this dizzy, dreamy, sandy warm -
The warm that melts clean through your soul -
I slip into the shore's sweet song,
And breathe the sun-drenched ocean air.
The sea reflects the sun's bright flame,
Becoming magic liquid fire,
And slides its waves onto the sand
While seabirds ride the open air.
I slowly raise my eyes to watch,
Those graceful birds, so light and free,
While clouds shift, slow, through blue expanse,
And disappear into the sea.
My mind meanders through the flow,
And sails upon the breezy waves,
And sanctuary is all this beach,
And this is where my heart remains.
