The Beach

Let me slip my toes
 naked into the cold wet sand,
let the sunscreen on my face, legs, and arms
 soak in the heat of the sun's rays,
let my eyes blink rapidly
 blinded by the foaming ocean waves,
let me breathe in deep
 the scent of salty air,
summer's here
 let me be freed down at the shore,
burn sun and sand and blue abyss
 as I lay in dreams upon the beach shores.
