Spent 20 consecutive years on Florida and Mexico beaches with my first wife Linda! Nothing could replace those years! The memories of those years remain forever implanted in my psyche!

Ah, I know what you mean, Jack. Deborah and I went to Mexico and Costa Rica for about thirty consecutive years, sometimes twice a year. Can't beat it!

Such a wonderful three lines, Milt. So easy on the mind to relate to -- yet carrying with each line, a taste of eternal time. Marvelous haiku! Sands on the Seashore, Gershon

It's so relaxing on the beach just people watching and watching marine creatures going about their business. Tom

Yes sir, Tom. That's what makes the beach such an incredibly relaxing place. Kind of throwing cares to the wind, taking some deep breaths, and enjoying everyone "going about their business." Delightful!

Yes. I love a stroll along the beach with no expectations and, suddenly, finding a treasure.

I smiled thinking of a beach as I read it.

Me, too, Caren...and I wrote it! (chuckling) I hope you will get to a beach real soon. It is such a refreshing and rejuventating place.
