.
The tide is out, rocks exposed, unclothed;
White whispering waves catch the first rays of the sun
As they run back and forth on silken sands.
Pools, left behind between rock spaces,
Shine like mirrors’ smooth faces,
Tranquil, serene…
Softly murmuring swells draw errant curls
Like a magnet into the main mass
And the sun slowly climbs, birthing a new day
While the tide gently turns to wash our steps away
As if we’d never been…

I can almost smell the salty air, as I view the remains of the waves left behind, between the rocks, waiting for another returning wave to take it home again.. Nice job Denise thank you for sharing that with us..

I loved this Denise. “Rocks unclothed” is so descriptive.
This takes me back to the sea, although I live 100 miles away.
Thank you

I have an apartment along a river. There is a dam nearby so that even in the winter when everything is frozen solid, my river runs past. I have the sounds and sights of the rushing water. It calms my soul.
