Clearwater

The way you sound when you roll in,
to feel your granules against my skin.

Your salty smell is magnificent,
I love you with all I hold within.

To walk on you feels like the moon,
to say your name can brighten a room.

Can fix the mood or heal a wound,
I cannot wait to get back to you.

You love the sun and so do I,
to lay with you under blue skies.

Can make all worries go goodbye,
as you sing your soothing lullabies.

One day I will live with you,
then every day we'll share its true.

I know how much you miss me too,
so just hold on,
I’ll be home soon.

After I moved from St Croix I lived in Tampa (Temple Terrace) for a while, and Clearwater was my favorite place to go for walks under the moon, (or ANYtime) ... quite a beautiful, romantic spot. I visited a couple years ago when my daughter and I drove from Universal to Clearwater to stay with a friend of mine who lives there. Captiva Island is the only place in Florida that I love as much! Very nice write - it took me back instantly to wonderful memories - thanks for sharing! Blessings! :o)

Picked this one because my daughter lived there for about 6 years. Nice tribute to a beautiful city.
