Sunset

Here I sit on the beach's grey sand as the sun begins to set. Another day is complete...come what may. The gentle sea breeze kisses my face, as I pull my blanket around me snugly. My hair dancing playfully. I close my eyes and let my mind drift away, as I hear the seagulls cry overhead and the waves breaking in a hypnotic rhythm. I scoop up hand fulls of dry sand and let it slip through my fingers like granulated sugar. Breathing in the fresh salty air, I feel the suns warmth upon my face... as all the days tension melts away. It is one of those moments in time that shall be tucked away, to be retrieved sometime in the future... when my mind and body needs to escape the stress of everyday life. P.R.Deremer
