For a change, I'm posting something that's positive! Discrete Glory Sitting on the sand of this lonesome beach My consciousness awakes me, for what nature may teach Surrendering my soul, to its tempting tease I disperse into infinity, and glide the morning breeze And as I float at random now, over this deep blue its naked rhythm beating time, while life below swims through I smile at this day’s rituals, as they dance the ocean’s sound Whilst the sun spreads its loving warmth, to the beauty all around And as I re-awake myself, here on the morning sand I reach to feel the peace around me, the simplicity of this land And turning towards the coastline now, whilst watching life awake I wonder at this beauty ours, and to all that life can make How beautiful it is here now, how serene, how calm, how sweet I should come here more often now, to this state so plain… discrete And spend some time on listening, to what nature has to say Leaving peace to act as a guide to me, let nature show the way Michelax - July 2000 |

Is your beach part of a time share? I would love to get a part of that action. By the time I finished reading it I felt a soothing peace within me and I liked that.  |

very peaceful, the ocean does bring such peace to you. Seeing the blue skies above the so vast and blue sea and hearing the roar of the ocean while the breeze cascades through your hair and feeling the warmth of the sunshine upon your face. Makes me long for the beach. all except that sand, yikes. |
