By the Tranquil Shores

A quiet breeze, Stillness in the air, No voices filtering into my mind, No sound putting my mind into a tumultuous stir, I flow with the rhythm of nature's music, My thoughts glide in the unperturbed flow, Somewhere by the sea, The fog is dispersed, Somewhere by the sea, I walk on an uncluttered path, Somewhere by the sea, I’d spend my last days, At day’s end, I'll soar on unbridled wings.
