Steep Sand Dune

Steep Sand Dune

While we were standing on step sand dune
Started looking out towards a long lagoon
What we saw were a pretty pair of pelicans
Who turned out to be pair of perfect twins.

Long billed birds walked up and down shore
Waves soon would come in more and more
Was such a sight that no one could resist
Especially when seen if you were a tourist.

Sun went down while night was approaching
Then God allowed to happen a certain thing
While He was looking at us from up above
My wife and I instantly had fallen in love.

Now we live in humble home near the beach
And every time we hear the seagulls screech
We will thank our precious God with a prayer
For the beauty he has given us everywhere.
