Summer Dreams
~
thoughts like puffy clouds
float on warm summer thermals
refresh my spirit
~
waves, salt and sea breeze
waft about my hungry soul
feed my summer dreams

I am so grateful for my time at the beach this summer and visit with a friend. Her kind offer to stay at her home was a most welcome respite for this weary soul. Many thanks to Camille and Carolina Beach, NC. 🙂

Beautiful words. I find the beach always soothes the soul. We are lucky enough to live just 15 minutes from the coast here in SW France, the sound of the waves, the sand between ones toes, it’s a place of peace and calm, it’s a place to put whatever is wrong right.
