A Day By the Ocean

Smell the sweet and salty air Roam the wide beach without a care Walk ankle deep in the ocean's cooling foam Dig in the sand till the cows come home For the fleeting moments spent in this magical place Forget the outside world and its fanatic pace Be a child once more, let your mind roam free See life not as it is but as it could be We live but once and time is a but a fleeting friend So cherish this time from glorious beginning till end

Hello Charles Gragg, if only i could live by the water,ocean, waterfall, stream,lake. I would watch the waves come in and out. Because water is relaxing. A wonderful poem. Have a nice day my friend.
