Ocean

It's very hot here, as usual, and I have been missing the ocean. I looove going to the ocean. It fascinates me. I think it'd be great to live near one someday. Maybe then I could learn to surf!!

A friend of mine wrote a poem about the ocean and doesn't mind me sharing it, so share it I will.

I'll  probably be sharing more of her poetry as I am obsessed with it! So here goes the first one...

 

What I like about the ocean.

The way the waves quickly kiss your toes before being dragged back out, as you stand on the shoreline.

The smell of salty air that you can never completely forget, but will always be reminded anew every time you smell it. 

How quickly you can forget how salty the water is after 

getting a mouthful.

The waves reminding you again how salty the water is.

The breeze that makes you want to lean into it and let it catch you.

How walking along the shoreline can clear your mind almost instantly if you let it.

Spotting shells in hues you didn't know existed.

Seeing almost no distinction between water and sky at the fine line where they meet.

Sunsets over a liquid horizon.

Not being able to think of a word to describe it.
