Seaside
February 23, 2009
When I arrive to my turquoise home away from home,
the soft, warm sand invites me to stay.
The salty sea air lightly touches my face.
It brings me to a place where I know God is real.
The mighty waves crash upon the shore,
and leave me feeling smaller than ever before.
The ocean is where I am free to be me;
I can relax and listen to the music of the waves.

I absolutely loved that.
It's probably one of the best i've ever read. I wish you could favorite poems on here. I truly loved this, and i could feel how you "felt". I always get so excited when people recognize God in their poems. That was gorgeous! Thank you, truly.
Would you like to read any of mine?
