Serenity Lays Amongst Stars

c r e s t f a l l e n 
                   lapis lazuli 
                                   w
                                    a
                                     v
                                      e
                                       s 
                                          lap 
       against pearlized 
                                  ivory shores  
           strands of forest-green 
                         s e a w e e d 
                 dot 
                      the beachside  
as an i r i d e s c e n t 
                                  sunset 
                                             d
                                               i
                                                p
                                                 s 
   over the 
              shrinking horizon 
s p r i n k l i n g 
                       its dwindling rays 
        over the dunes
fragrances of beach rose 
                           dance playfully in the 
                  b r e e z e
saline-infused mist
                              tantalizes the 
                          tongue 
whilst s i l k e n sand 
                       slumbers beneath 
      my feet 
                       embers ignite 
like lightning bugs 
               from a roaring bonfire  
the majestic call of 
                        gulls s a i l s 
           amongst the flames  
nature's eloquent beauty 
                       envelops a drained h e a r t 
breathing new life 
                           into an ancient soul
an oasis under 
                  kaleidoscopic stellar evolution
