  OCEAN MEMORIES    
 
   
 

I feel the warmth of the sun gleaming down on my face
And I awaken to the sounds of the waves,
And the smell of the sea.
How perfect life is.

Unresolved feelings resurface on the ocean shores.
Screaming out of my pores
Words left unsaid will never be spoken

Laying on the sand
Allowing the waves to cleanse my soul
And the sun to warm my heart

In the distance I smell the fresh ocean air
Reaching to touch the wondrous light
I fall into a deep silent sleep and infinitely rest in peace.
