Sea Air

My heart feels warm, as if I've just realised the wonders that can still be found in this world. As I gaze up to the crisp, clear blue sky, I see the sun. It shines so brightly in the cool morning air. When I breathe, I see my breath like smoke in front of my red nose and rosy cheeks. The clear fresh air is cool against my face but feels great as it fills my lungs; my elixir. And as I sit on this embedded rock, my legs dangling an inch from the sea, I look at its vastness and think of the sheer size of this world. It could make me feel worthless and small, instead I feel honored to be a part of it.

I am stunned by the lack of comments on this one. A beautiful piece of prose poetry that really made me feel I was there, in fact I'm sure I have been there! Great writing Zoe. Love, Nigel
