Night At the Beach

A night at the beach The enormity of the big orange sun comes to shine for the last time as it throws red pastel colours onto the clouds The night is here and the drums start to play in the distance as the people rejoice in another day of complete warmth and serenity and it is the moon that lights the once light blue sea into a dark purple that shrouds Couples walk along the beach feeling the cool sand between their toes and the waves lap flourishing with white plumes then back into the ocean so deep and calm as tonight the boats are in the harbour resting as my eyes browse The bay is full of twinkling lanterns of all colours and people talk of their day as the noise in the distance ebbs and sways and I am relaxed to know that everyone is at peace there is no time for rows As the moon shines and the noise of people slowly drift away a slight warm breeze covers my body as time slowly turns down and nothing but the sea is to be heard and it feels as though I am sitting on the edge of the world as I look up to the stars playing into my mind surrounds
