I was at the beach in Delaware for the majority of this past week. While I cannot share salt water taffy via my blog, I can share this poem that I wrote after some quality time on the shore.
"Wave in, Wave out"
Wave crashes,
Sea foam topped salty water rolls in,
Engulfing and cooling my feet,
Now the water washes away from my feet,
As it returns to its home in the great sea,
Leaving my feet calmed and even more grounded in the wet sand,
Waves continue to roll in and roll out,
Some strong, some choppy, some soothing,
All part of the same great sea,
Each wave engulfs and cools,
Feet become more and more grounded with each one,
Ever healing,
Ever mysterious,
The great sea's waves never fail,
To meet your feet where they are,
And carry away all they are willing to let go.
