By the Ocean

Laying here staring out across the ocean, listening to the sound of the waves roaring, gazing up at all of the glimmering stars in the sky, lighting up the sea like a shining dance floor. Counting stars as blessings life has given me, thanking God for each and every one of them, feeling relaxed just lying here next to the shorelines, trying to draw in the last bits of the warming night. The full moon shining ever so brightly now, as the waves calm down to a gentle splash, a light breeze pushes softly against my skin, as I get up and go to leave I stop and turn around, just to simply admire the beautiful ocean one last time.
