On The Beach, In The Moment

You feel calm, relaxed, happy, in the moment
The smell of saltwater waves crashing against the shore
The chirp of tropical birds bathing in the morning sun
Saltwater smashes in style on the hot ground
Fresh palm trees sway and dance in the howling, humid wind
A twinkling thing catches your eye
You wander over, the squishy sand beneath your feet
Feels like sugar between your toes
You reach it finally, precious in your hands
A seashell, like no other
Purple swirls encircling the smooth shell
Looks like the water eddying in the shallows
This is the place where you learn to connect
Through the golden glint of the sand
And the swift movement of the sea bobbing you around
To truly connect with Mother Earth
