This Amazingly Present Moment Feeling

I sit on a green mossy rock on the seashore Feet planted firmly on to the warm granules sand Feeling the grains slipping between my toes Hearing the waves roar in to shore And the wind blow Rustling past me in refreshing sweeps While watching the sea so amazing As the waves roll in and out Seeing the surf and the seaweed tumbling in the waves And as the waves roll out The stones roll back as if chasing back to the sea As though that's where they belong Almost scared to be exposed. Suddenly out of the corner of my eye From the edge of my tranquil and still mind A dog races headlong Races headstrong into the surf And leaps and bounds and splashes Before racing out again, manic and insane I can't help but smile and chuckle Before returning to my conscious time Aware of everything but in a mindful state Looking out to where the blue sky hits the sea On this picturesque horizon and landscape Breathing in the sea air and almost tasting the salt And feeling that nothing here and now can take away From the resplendence of this present now moment This wonderful moment on the beach Yet on the edge of conscious living and life Aware and connected to everything that exists Becoming one with all.
