I come here seeking solitude
And to relax out in the sun
Many people flock here in Summer
But today I'm the only one

I look out across the harbour
And watch the boats as they sway
Another beautiful day in Melbourne
Here I sit beside the bay

The smell of fresh cut grass
Drifts along the salty breeze
As my senses come alive
Almost causing me to sneeze

The seagulls eye me suspiciously
Always hoping that I have food
But today I sit here writing
Enjoying this pensive mood

I walk to the end of the jetty
Searching as far as the eye can see
While absorbing all that surrounds me
I lose myself in tranquility

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

(sigh) Sometimes it is always the most beautiful feeling to sit alone by the bay, sweet friend, as there is so much beauty and serenity to embrace! (kiss on cheek) Melbourne must be so beautiful, I dream of going there sometime in the near future as the Great Barrier Reef and oceanside and Ayers Rock and everything is majestic to me! (big huggssssss) I love this, sweet friend, the picture is breathtaking too, we all love you so much, just as I hold dear all the wonderful quotes you share with me! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
