A House By the Sea

I have this house by the sea A hidden abode where I can be Alone with the music of rushing waves Kept in this seashell that simply gave Me a taste of evasive solitude In a whispered sound ...it was so good. Cynthia Buhain-Baello~~~03.13.16 "A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones. " Proverbs 14:20

Thank you Pete Yuhas, we have the most awesome beaches here and being there just soothes the senses.

Cynthia, a gentle piece, but I'm wondering about the use of the word, "was," in the last line.

Thank you James Inman - it was after listening to a seashell (sort of). We have big seashells here in my place. ~~~Cynthia
