Ocean Waves

My first love... the ocean

Gentle breeze blowing across the dunes

Seagulls soaring overhead, swooping down

Salty sea air lingering around me

 

I bend down and sift my fingers through

the pearlescent sand

Staring at the sunrise appearing on

the horizon

 

Before me the ocean waves roar

bringing with them a calming peace

to my inner being

 

I move closer to where the wave meets the sand

and I slide my toes into the foaming water

Another wave comes crashing down,

spritzing droplets of water onto my face

 

I stand there in awe of the beauty abounding

As the ocean waves surround me

It's becoming winter around here, and I wanted to write about something that helps me forget about the winter season :) haha
I hope you enjoy!

Wow! Great imagery and beautiful descriptions. Your vivid language seemed to bring me at the beach and I could feel what you were feeling, see what you were seeing, etc. Awesome poem!

I love the snow. The texture, scent in the air and watching it fall. However, my other love is the beach also. Love the music the wave sets make as they break. The receding and replenishment of the break water as it climbs up the shore. Almost as if the sea takes breaths in..out mimicing the waves themselves. Love the image your poem envokes upon my senses. Already looking forward to beach riding and it is just today December. :)
