SEASHELLS AND PEARLS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I wander,
barefoot,
the cool sand cradling my soles,
each step a soft conversation
with the earth,
the salty air,
a gentle caress.

I gather the whispers of the sea,
the glimmer of shells,
the soft glow of pearls,
and I carry them within me,
treasures, reminders that beauty lies
not just in the grand,
but in the quiet, delicate moments
shimmering in the stillness.

Lovely! Beautiful write! Enchanting, love it. One small treasure can be as great as them all. If one listens...allowing to be led by Divine Spirit personifying.

This setting reveals itself, a tapestry of pure intent. Fashioned with thought, rising with tender feet upon the warm shore. In the hushed, tender hours glistening in the calm.
