Upon an empty shore, I stand alone, Where seas meet sand and skies call home. The ocean vast, an endless view, To contemplate, a mind anew. In gentle whispers, the waves embrace, As salty air caresses my face. A symphony of gulls up high, Their ethereal songs to mystify. Footprints fade within the tide, Mirroring the thoughts I tried, To hold, to grasp, to comprehend, Yet slip like sand between my hands. Here lies a world, where dreams reside, Within the shells, that oceans hide. The soothing hum of ebbing flow, Reveals the secrets yet unknown. In this solitude, I find release, As horizon merges into a masterpiece. A canvas painted by heaven's grace, Where thoughts can roam, and hearts can race. Amidst the crashing waves, a hush, A quietude amidst the rush. My thoughts and sea, united be, Entwined as one, in harmony. As twilight nears, the sky turns gold, The sun sets forth, a tale untold. Emboldened by the day's refrain, I leave the shore, but peace remains.
