BEACHES AND OCEANS

 To love the beach, walking along the 
 Sand so warm,

 Looking ahead of me, at the pier in 
 The distance.

 The feel of the wind, as I'm walking 
 Along the wet, sandy shore,

 The sun shining in the sky, seagulls 
 Flying in search of food.

 My thoughts are of many things as I 
 Dream of Life's pleasures,

 At peace I am, strolling along 
 Listening, always listening.

 The waves are a beautiful sight, 
 Musical tunes crashing upon the shore,
 
 The horizon seems like forever as I 
 Stare in silence at its mystery.

 Shadows from clouds darken the ocean,
 But only a touch,

 The wonders of life that live beneath 
 The waters are seen from within.

  Beaches and oceans have been forever,


  There's a great love for me as they 
  Go on together.
