> Ascending from the sky,
the sun liquefies into the ocean.
The waves clash into the sand as they tumble by,
reversing to scattered grains of solid gold in motion
Dolphins inhale their earliest breath of morning,
while the wind whispers a gentle song
that tumbles across the awakening ocean without warning.
After I look into the sky very long,
seagulls dry their feathers in the warm light,
stretching their magnificent wings;
Getting ready for a distant flight.
This place has many beautiful things.
There is beauty everywhere near the ocean;
It has me bewitched like a magical love potion.
