Contemplation:

To walk the shore upon this day 

hearing the waves caress the beach

as bare foot toes leave prints of afore

to gaze far out to the lands afar

and see the birds swoop and sway

crest fallen waves crashing 

against hidden barriers

where a thousand million lives

go about their individual ways

the smell of salt cleansing the lungs

filling one self with a satisfied relief

of utter relaxation

as one drifts in and out

of a semi concious mood

utter devout and rested

in the arms of mother nature

and her resounding touching beauty

as the sun burns and falls

from the sky itself

to rest on the ocean bottom

and her sister the moon

shines her light

guiding you on home

to the peace and solitude

within that is a life

worth born
