A Beach Spa For My Feet

I push my feet blissfully 
into smooth sun-kissed grains of sand.
Taking my feet abruptly from their fun,
 down to the shore I run.
Warm briny sea caresses them; 
they splash like happy children.

Liked the happy children line. It's too adorable to think of your toes as "tiny you's"... hahaha... I ADORE the beach (though I live a ten hour drive away from it)... *sigh*
