Tom Cunningham Date: 1/28/2019 12:46:00 AM Lovely image Ann, there is no better place to be and it is so theraputic listening to the sound of the water. Good luck. Tom.

Elizabeth Kinch Date: 1/27/2019 11:43:00 AM Love this haiku Ann. Watching the waves really does empower the mind and soul. Login to Reply Ann Gilmour Date: 1/27/2019 2:32:00 PM Hi Elizabeth, yes my soul suffers if I'm away from the sea for too long. The feeling I get when I walk by the sea is quite spiritual and lifts me if I feel down. I could never live anywhere else now. Hope your day was good. Kindest thoughts Ann xx

Heidi Sands Date: 1/27/2019 5:35:00 AM This is so nice and inspiring! Thanks for sharing :) Login to Reply Ann Gilmour Date: 1/27/2019 5:57:00 AM Thank you so much Heidi I always appreciate your comments. I am drawn to the sea and when I go inland I feel like a fish out of water- I am a Piscean so that explains a lot, haha. However, I am lucky to live next to the sea so I am able to enjoy it each day and I never tire of its ever changing beauty. Kindest thoughts Ann xx
