Sunrise On the Beach
Shades of pink paint the sky
gentle waves kiss my feet
return again to the sea
seagulls cry
Sun rises to bring the day
the dampness of the night
fading away
a new day
On the horizon specks of white
sailboats passing by
dolphins run alongside
unafraid
footprints in the sand
I am not alone
a kindred spirit
passed this way
seashells appear
driftwood too
remnants of the sea
treasures for me.
Pale red now the sky
the sun
peeks through the trees
bringing to life the beach
seabirds scurry around
there next meal to find
between each wave
is where their bounty lies
little diamonds dancing
sunlight on the sea
the beauty of it all
here for you and me.
