Serenity


Walking down the beach
hand in hand with
the love of my life,
we watch the children
write their names
in the sand with sticks.

we stop along
the water's edge
to cool our feet,
we gaze out
over the ocean
and watch the water
shimmer like diamonds.

So many footprints
we have left behind,
the children pick up
periwinkle shells
left behind by the waves.

The cool breeze
blows through our hair,
the mist from
the waves powders
our faces.

Time to go,
we have to leave
this serenity behind,
for tomorrow is another day.

We'll be back to walk
down the beach,
hand in hand
once more.
