The Ocean Air I felt your approach as the wind began to blow. Your scent as distinct as a frightened skunk. The earth needs you myself would rather have you leave... Return another day. The ocean air is calling me... Begging for my soul. The freedom that exists when one steps upon the sand elates my heart and mind to cherish every moment. The song the ocean sings removes my daily stress leaving me... At ease in a troubled world. |

i could certainly use some ocean air up here in the valley  ------------------ If I had my mouth I would bite. If I had my liberty I would do my liking. In the mean time, let me be that I am, and seek not to alter me. ~~~Shakespeare~~~ |

Wish I could send you some Elvira. It's 2 hours from me, so that's why I wished off the rain. |

Ocean air sure sounds better than the >100 degree heat wave we are having at the moment! |

You know, I can FEEL this, I know exactly what you're saying - it's beautiful! I went to Aruba once and stood on the shore - I have felt your words...it's like an escape, the ocean is... BRAVO! ------------------ - poet FemmeFatale "The strongest man in the world is he who stands most alone..." Henrik Ibsen (1826-1906) Norwegian dramatist lyric poet |
