Cinnamon Sugar Sand..

The sun glitters on the seas smooth surface viewed high from a hilltop Light blue and pink wrinkles shimmer irredescently on the ocean's skin. Cinnamon sugar sand lapped and soaked by effervescent lemonade froth Purple fairy floss sponges entwine with different size orange cone shells With outgoing waves Bubbles stream from the crab holes like champagne A symphony of ocean sounds rumbling thunderlike echoing hissing foam crashing waves to the splishing , splashing, fizzing sounds of dissipating froth incoming and outgoing the translucent blue sea like a fresh soda. On the pier the tangerine sunset reflects on the deep green glassy water... Sea breezes blowing a cooling wind Bristling breeze Murmmering ocean The cliffy hillsides carve a steep stairway to yet another hidden beach.. Like jewels dotted on the sand , these beautiful sea-rocks and shells sit, it seems untouched , lay softly embedded in the damp sand. This beach also yeilds thick, green seaweed and fossilised sponges . Every beach has its own special seaweed , unique shells and rock shapes. From the roadway the dusk descends a cat on the beachside curb As the light fades two more cats quietly emerge from the shadows.. Quickly slinking out from the hollows, nooks and crannies more cats appear.. In the space of a few minutes the beach road is teeming with felines Out of the darkness a car approaches to join this mysterious meeting. A woman steps out of the car with parcels and the cats crowd around her..
