To The Sea

I was called to the sea,
the waves inviting me,
needing some time,
some time to just be.

Sandals in my hand,
barefoot in the sand,
sunshine on my shoulders,
walking the ocean land.

The sun‘s rays kissing my skin,
I close my eyes,
take it all in.

A daydream in the making,
drawing me far away,
beyond the ocean‘s edge,
like a castaway.

The salty air so sweet,
bringing me back to the now,
reveling in this glorious retreat,
the beauty and the wow!

I was called to the sea,
the waves inviting me,
needing some time,
some time to just be….
