ONENESS

I opened my eyes
and there I was
sitting on a clear white sandy beach
I began to take note of my colorful
surroundings
My eyes carefully wandered
until they rested upon the beautiful sight
of the clear mass of salted water
My ears were consumed by the gushing sounds 
of its crystal-like waves
My nose deeply inhaled its sea-weed aura
of the underwater world
My mind was at ease and my heart was fulfilled
as I closed my eyes once again

There I became one with my natural surroundings
meshed with the exotic sights
pleasant sounds 
and a rich aroma
each experience reminding me 
of the simplicities of life
