A Breath of Fresh Air

Walking along the beach,

Sandals in hand,

The grainy sand between my toes,

Breeze tickling my hair,

Gentle like the sea,

Bright blue skies,

Soft white clouds overhead.

Dew in the air,

Feeling it on my skin,

Wafting in my nose,

The saltiness of the sea,

A ships horn in the distance, I hear,

The crisp morning air,

A breath of fresh air.

You look out at the ocean,

The calmness of the sea,

The sparkling clear water,

Shining like diamonds,

Under the rising sun.

Spotting a Dolphin,

Playfully dancing and twirling,

A splash and a quick flip of its fin,

It’s gone, quick as it came,

A breath of fresh air,

Out at sea.
