It's been a fast year,
so far.

And I have revisted,
my spot in the sand.

April 28, 2007,
was the day I found it.

What a great,
wonderful day.

I have visited my spot,
many times since then.

With each one,
bringing something old & new.

My ocean,
has watched me evolve.

As I have gazed,
at it's awesome wonders.

Remembering,
what was it not.

And what is not,
maybe.

Wind in my hair,
sun on my skin.

I am left,
with pure gracious peace.

I go,
to ponder.

And I go,
to hope.

It is my,
spot in the sand.

I am waiting,
for the cool breeze to arrive.

SO I,
can go sit and think.

Feel the cool breeze,
as my eyes are blessed with beauty.

Still going,
to my spot in the sand.

And Winter,
will come.

Yet colder,
and different.

But I will be,
sitting on my spot of sand.

Still evolving,
still watching in amazement.

How my spot of sand,
and I evolve.

This is wonderful in it's simplicity.  I was at the beach
yesterday, the gentle breeze and salt air made me extremely grateful for the day.  
There is nothing more precious than that sense of peace and well being.  

Enjoyed your poem very much, ladylisa~

Beautifully written, dear Lisa. It is good to have a special spot where we can feel the immense pleasure of simply BEING.

Very lovely.

Love,
