At the Beach

At the beach I follow the sand like the water follows the seashore 
cool wind in my face, the sun at my back, all the world is an Apple  
Conversations with Angels and God's of the Universe 
are easy as rain, when I am in solitude's reign. 
The trees are a talking while I go a walking, oh what a view 
Children building sandcastles make a picture perfect painting,  
of both innocence and awe...
With an acrylic sky  that paints itself with blues, whites and pinks 
I hover my eyes over a mingling blushing sunset.  At the end of day,  
it never fails to arrive, bringing with it both beauty or deliverance
it shines and graces the land, without askance. 
At the beach the seagulls soar o'er promising horizons,  
while I sit on my blanket and watch a latent un-discovered sun,  
rise off the calm blue waters. 
Here where the crunch of an apple can be heard over ocean foam, 
I allow my heart to release a flower, before the sweet magenta gloam.

Hi Mystic, Your well-written write about a day at the beach is so descriptive. It had great content and imagery. Hey, I'm ready to grab my beach necessities and head off to the beach. I enjoyed the read. Have a nice day;-) Alexis

A very creative and very descriptive work you have penned in this one. I enjoyed reading it. I would like to go to the beach before it gets too hot, but alas, that probably won't happen this year. Thanks for sharing this work and for dropping by my page. Sara

Beauty can be everywhere, especially near the sea. The pity is I always feel cold.
