Foaming like champagne bubbles in whipped cream the water scurries in wavelets over the sandy shore tickling in between my toes as my feet sink in the undertow of tide receding
The day all glowing and bright caressing my body with sunlights golden rays giving my skin shade a roseate glaze to enjoy the pleasure of summer days so on the beach I can lovingly laze
A time to dream to let the mind wander or conjure up whatever it pleases perhaps a poem that depicts the glorious day as blue sky meets blue water and everything blends into a mesmerizing miracle of life

"Just as the wave cannot exist for itself, but is ever a part of the heaving surface of the ocean, so must I never live my life for itself, but always in the experience which is going on around me.” Albert Schweitzer
An enjoyable write, peaceful and soothing. The ocean has a way to calm one's troubles, allowing them to get lost in the waves of the therapeutic waves. Your imagery is great, as is the effective words, well done my friend!
Blessings,

The sea is a wondrous thing indeed, Eileen. You have expressed this most effectively in your verses here. Thank you. Love, peace, and blessings to you,
Sitting on a beach alone just as the sun sets always gave me a feeling of power. I felt I could accomplish anything. If only until the sun set. A beauty of a poem.
O yes the oceans intoxicates with it's beauty and strength
A time to relax let the mind wonder and the poetic
Thoughts flow as the blue sky and blue waters cleanses
The mind.
Outstanding a very beautiful peacefulness
Felt throughout the page!!
Love And Peace to you always

Through your picture alone, I can feel, see, hear and taste the ocean air, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm so good! You wrote a piece pleasing to the soul, Enjoyed.........
I love the picture, I love the poem, and I love the quote. Eileen, you are always so perfect when it comes to writing exactly what you wish to convey and finding both a perfect quote and picture to coincide. You are the Queen of this style; no question!
What IS it about the landmass meeting with the ocean? It is, as you say, like a miracle and like magic, always shape-shifting, always different, never the same for two seconds at a time... and the LIGHT! I am truly in awe and totally infatuated with the experience of becoming coastal. Inspiration will last as long as there are grains of sand and droplets of water... and toes and tans that are tickled by them! :)) TY Kate xx
I've only been near the ocean once in San Diego
and dang if it wasn't foggy. But...I've been to
Corpus Christi and we found a nice place close
to the Bay. The sand is incredibly nice for toes.
and I love the ideas that the oceans have inspired
in me. It's great Eileen!
