Ode to Summer
January 31, 2015
Ode to Summer
The trees swaying to the wind’s song
The sunlight beating on my face
The aroma of the barbeque
Smiles spread like flowers in a field.
The beach,
Soft sand spread like a blanket
The white caps crash on the shore
The chill of the breeze.
I look at the turquoise ocean,
Surfers paddle out
Glide on the waves
And repeat the routine again.
I look at the smooth sand,
I feel the small and rough grains
I take a deep breath in
And savor the moment.
