Solace of the Sea

Solace of the Sea

Sea sounds bring solace.

Whispering waves ebb and flow.

Waters mirror a scenic serenity,

while salty breezes blow.

Sandpipers play relentless tag,

alternating the chase with escape.

Gentle whitecaps rise to greet them,

carving the outline of the cape.

Seagulls swoop and dive with an echoing cry,

floating white on the cornflower sky.

Troubles forgotten, we lie on the sand

and watch cotton ball clouds drifting by.

For those wondering, no, I am not currently at the beach. These photos are from a vacation a few years ago.
