Escape to the clouds

Take my hand

there's nothing else to hold on to

Grab your hat though

In a minute

You'll squeeze the sand

between your stressed out toes

Let the peaceful water

splash over your soul

Breathe in, as deep as you can

for this haven

is the birthplace of peace of mind

Exhale

tell the sea at least three secrets

and your heart

will escape to the clouds.

So beautiful and wonderful the poem is my dear friend.
"Exhale

and your heart
will escape to the clouds."

Ckouds!!! Yes, yes and yes. Have been trying to inspire people when stressed, low, needing a lift.. to raise their eyes to the clouds and watch them change shape and what/how they do it!

Your poem really is beautiful, peaceful, softly subtle yet inspiring. It is a stress- breaker too, loving, gentle and more. The final three lines are perfect.. the sea gives, the clouds give - we humans should show our delight and respect.

Keep safe, take care.

love it, Sleepless! I am a land luber at heart .. give me the forests and streams and hills any day; but your write gives me a small piece of the Divine .. a comfort, peace and unity displayed down those steps to the sand and sea ... to be elevated to the clouds .. love it! the breath ... and the three secrets to leave for the tides to take out ... fine meditation this morning says i! first poem read of the day for me .. thanks for sharing ;)
