Camping On the Beach

The fire flickers with coastal breeze Illuminating sand The orange sun is setting slow Where swaying palm trees stand The crashing of the ocean surf Helps calm the rabid soul Close your eyes and smell the air Nirvanas cup is full The seagulls call has been detained She's sitting in her nest Waiting for the rising sun With babies at her breast As darkness falls, the air is calm The ocean sings along Lulling me into a trance It's like a sirens song I lay back on the sandy beach The stars are shining bright And smile in my slumber 'Cause there's peace on Earth tonight Rockman :-)

I don't think I've ever pictured this kind of serenity until now.

Cool soothing write I feel like I'm laying on the beach again just chilling. Thanks my friend for taking me back to a better time.
