To see the waters glisten,
and to hear the waves, just listen.
The calming of my heart,
I can't be far apart,
from the water.
A place I hold near,
for it is very dear.
It takes away my fear,
and everything is clear.
I wish I could live there,
and smell the salty air.
I'd wake up with the sun,
before the day's begun,
and swim, for it is fun.
The mist brushing upon my face,
feels as gentle as lace.
Astonished by it's grace,
the water rushing in no race,
my mind goes into space.
The waters gentle touch,
the singing of gulls,
the warmth of the sun,
the rush of the waves,
is where my heart belongs.
Author notes
I love the water. It is calming and beautiful.
