At Home

I always feel at home when by water, especially the ocean!

At Home

I smell the salty oceans

As my feet walk the path,

A path of golden sand

 

The sun hovers above,

The oceans’ crashing waves

As if strung on a clay diorama

 

My toes wiggle in the hot sand

Water laps my steaming toes

Cleansing them

 

A seagull cries

I watch the streak of beauty

Silhouetted by the setting sun

 

My heart

Intoxicated with the ocean

The place I call home.

I have to say it is a sweet thing to notice the little things that make a house a home
the sounds sights and smells that say to us we are home.though many dont know a home as beautiful as you describe.We all remember the dent in the wall the marks of each our height left by mothers and fathers as we grew.Home is as much a place in the mind as in the heart.

Beautiful, so beautiful. The imagery is so fantastic Chelsea. I enjoyed reading this poem. I could feel myself in your shoes as I read over the poem. This is a great poem that you wrote. I really don't have any suggestions on how you could improve this piece of amazing writing.
