Finding a Treasure In the Sand

As I walk the sandy beach,                                                                                                               a sea shell my hand will reach.                                                                                                  Wash it off in the blue water,                                                                                                            to give to my daughter.                                                                                                                      A chain I found under a rock,                                                                                                                  I will wear it with my smock.                                                                                                               I found treasures for my daughter and for me,                                                                               now let's go eat some crackers and brie.

Delightful, Paula. Wish I could be walking on the beach about now. Was thinking about a trip to Sanibel Island (famous for sea shells), but not to be this year what with travel woes and all. Best to you.

Thank You for writing. Yes, the shore is also my favorite place. I grew up going to the beach. I do not live near the water and I really miss it. Glad you like it. Hugs and blessings to you. Be safe...........
