Dunes
Our feet sank in the sand as we
Went walking through the dunes.
I haven't hiked on land like that
In many many moons.
Then suddenly we turned a bend
And there within our reach
Was something most surprising -
An amazing empty beach!
The waves were gentle and the water
Froze the few brave waders.
Remoteness kept it free of
Hordes of tourist-type invaders.
While heading back (reluctantly)
I found my souvenir -
Some tiny brightly-circled shells,
To keep the magic near.
