MUSINGS ON A QUIET BEACH

Sky, Azure blue this afternoon, the golden sun blazing, I walked along the edge of a quiet beach, the waves lapping At my feet, the creamy colored sand through my toes running, Dark, raven-like clouds collided up high, lightening breathtaking, The rain came own like torrents, and the thunder deafening, Late afternoon creeps upon me, raindrops decreasing. A rainbow appears in the sky, intensely alluring, The heat becomes tolerable, the Crayola coloring Of this hope driven dream, the rainbow, absolutely outstanding. I sat on the damp sand as the evening began drawing Me into a darker night, my mind started wandering, Imagine me a mermaid with my merman, a myth depicting, I looked up at a full smiling moon, so enchanting, The moon now stood out, within an onyx darkening Sky and the stars glittered like diamonds, silvery, shining, The full moon shone upon the indigo-colored waves churning, The horizon dark, the white horses vanilla white, glowing, The ocean was alive and active, fish jumping and playing The tide began coming in, so I stood up, a shooting Star traversed the night sky, what a beautiful ending To a glorious day by the sea and a night worth applauding. I quickened my pace and reached my car, repeating In my mind the happenings and images of the day, composing Them into a so-called song, wish I could sing, and tell how rewarding A memory like today recorded in musical song, would be deserving,
