The tranquil sounds of the ocean, as they lap against the shore Releasing the pent up storm Of this raging, inner mind war Stare at the gentle horizion And colors of great design Sky intertwines with ocean The waters just sparkle and shine To walk along sands of the beach Footprints are leaving behind Bad memories washed away And soothing this subconscious mind At last I've found comfort and peace Along the colorful shore Surrounded by all beauty Serenity's peace evermore <*\\\>< There's only two ways you can go... One way you can save your riches, And the other will save your soul. Rich Mullins |

There's nothing like the sounds of the ocean and the feel of warm sand beneath your feet to bring peace and tranquility to the soul. It's wonderful to see you post, dovey!!! |

I've been on a beach at the Ocean a couple times and can remember their beauty ... I guess I'm kind of lucky because I'm surounded buy the Great Lakes where there are several beaches within an hours drive ... I love to walk on the beach at the waters' edge and feel the sand and water swirl around my feet ... finding shells and driftwood ... the sounds ... the air ... ... can't wait ... thankyou WhtDove for the breath of summer I also like to stop for fries with lots of salt and vinegar Rex}<{{{{o> |

"Bad memories washed away..." This is breathtaking, and I wish I could say something more original, as you've received some wonderful reviews on this! I just love the ocean because it is so tranquil...takes you away from it all, in a way...somehow. Thanks for sharing...pFF |

Rebecca, thanks for the walk on the beach. It was refreshing and wonderful to feel the salted breeze after the storm and watch bad memories just wash away. Poetry~ Words falling on paper, painting a dream. Shawna R. Holder Boise, Idaho |
