My Bliss

Relaxed and at peace
 
The brightness shining through my eyelids
 
My fingers twine in and out of softness
 
My skin is soaking up all the warmth possible
 
My wet hair gives relief to my hot neck
 
I can hear water crashing down
 
I’m free from the gripping hands of the ocean
 
Lying on the sand             

The sun beats down
 
Summer engulfs all my senses
