Serenity
I take a quiet stroll on the beach
as the golden streaks spread their charm
all across the swirling waters of the sea,
my naked feet sink slowly into the soft grainy sand
that clings to my toes,
each step I take I feel their gentle cuddle,
a soothing feeling envelopes me,
the tides advance slowly,
they rise and fall over in jubilation,
their gurgling sound fill my ears,
they splash their surf on my feet over and over again,
adamant, like a little toddler that won’t give up,
they urge me to stay, as I move away
the gentle breeze joins in, nudges me to give in,
I take a deep breath, relent,
stretch my arms wide,
take a deep breath,
fresh, rejuvenated I feel.
