My Beach

Wet sand squishes beneath my feet

I gently close my eyes and relish the feel

Tighter - my heart strings pull.

Goosebumps arise

As a soft gush of air hugs my skin

Welcoming me home.

Seagulls clustered around their food

Feast silently

In their oblivious content.

The sun peaks from its hidden position

Surveying the land

That will soon be graced with warmth

I stop at the edge of the sea

The salty breeze eases my mind

As its soft waves move back and forth from my feet.

Sitting surrounded by my beach

All thoughts are clear and finally

I can breathe.
