Eyes closed.
Standing in the breeze
Ocean washing over me
Miniature, gritty rocks smoothing my toes
Wet coolness blanketing over me
All thoughts disappear.
Eyes closed.
Alone for a moment
Shifting under the water
Eyes open.
Floating up toward the yellow globe above
Thoughts return.
Serenity is gone.
