Beach Heart


The crash of the waves Upon the shore The smell of the salt Oft described in folklore The feel of the sand Warm and soft underfoot The cry of the seagulls They saw my fresh fruit The beautiful shells Each one a new wonder The sparkling sea glass Gems thrown asunder I oft find myself Craving these things For unto my heart The lovely beach clings
