Beach Wind

salt scented sand, green seaweed laced,
tumbled by surf and white gull paced,
windswept beach
pleasantly blessed long seaside day
when warm breezes waltz with bright, gay
windflowers
I drink pungent scents standing near
where turquoise wears sea foam veneer,
my windfall

Very cleverly written Faye. I think the Wind choice is a bit more of a challenge than Earth or Fire, but I love the wind and wanted to write about it. I am assuming you love it too? This is a great entry for the contest!#7
