The gritty sands between my toes
The water beating upon the land
The spraying wearing away my woes
Washing away with a sudsy hand

Cooling winds upon my face
Gulls soar crying within the air
Salty smells I cannot place
And wishes I know that cannot fare

Winging through the silver breeze
The crystal sail of a steadfast soul
As solid as a stone unseen
Spirit breathing bleached canvas full

The heart I miss lays on the waves
Bobbing along the soapy sea
Growing nearer through the days
Till my life returns to me

My life, my only source of love
An oyster but within a pearl
Shimmering like the lights above
The magic through my very world.
