I miss you Beach

I miss you Beach 
touch of your 
warm sand beneath my feet 
squishing between my toes 
I miss your 
sandy salty kiss up on my lips 
the whisper of the ocean 
collector of its treasures 
you save a special seat 
on the beach for me 
to watch the waves roll in 
till they reach my feet 
teasing me with its coldness 
I miss you 
like the seashells on my shelf 
miss the ocean 
they long to reconnect 
become one once again 
I miss you Beach 
so far apart we are 
you are forever on my mind 
and in my heart
