Moonrise

A moonrise over the bluff
 the earth is alive
 showing off her beauty in a ray of colors
 As the waves roll in hitting the sandy shore
 there's no place you would rather be
 a perfect moment in a perfect place
 nothing but you & the sea
 & as the 
 earthly winds whisper along your face
 you feel the freedom wash along your feet
 a moonrise captured 
 sitting so high 
 you thank the universe your alive..
 

Inspired by a photo taken at a beach where I grew up.

I really like this poem. I myself feel a natural freedom, since childhood, in the night. People asleep at peace, the quietness, stillness, with the added sea and wind across the face, well that's freedom, freedom, and more freedom. I really enjoyed the poem even if I can't express that fact well.
