The Song of the Ocean

I walk along the sandy beach

And listen to the ocean's song

Feel the sand

Stick in between my bare toes

As the cool water washes over them.

I listen to the waves

Crash onto shore

The water reaching for my knees.

And the palm trees

Whispering in the wind

And the seagulls far off

Telling you their life story

As they fly away.

I smell the salt

In the water and the air around me

And taste it on my tongue.

As I walk along the shore

I look out to see the dolphins playing

And the sun setting

With beautiful rays of colour

Dancing off the waves.
