Sitting by myself on the beach
soaking in the warmth of the evening sun,
my hair dancing to the gusts of wind,
matching its steps to the musical din.
Undulating mighty waves rising high
with all its wrath and fury,
but decide to change their course
as they near the shore,
then gently ebb to make frothy swirls
on the sands of time.
The rays of the evening sun
casting a glistening spell on the sea,
turning them into a carpet
of shimmering diamonds, for all to see.
The sun playing hide n seek with the clouds
finally deciding to call it a day,
painting the evening sky in a crimson hue,
on its path across the horizon !
I sit there mesmerised
Admiring the vast canvas of nature
which chooses a colourful palette
to paint a picture so perfect.
from a glittering golden glow
a few minutes ago , to the dusky beauty now
her transformation, just magical!
I was glad to be there
to capture the artistry of the sea
In my heart forever!
You poem describing the beach is so inviting…. I feel tempted to visit the beach again and relive the moments captured ever so seductively through your poem.

meditation on the setting sun, in nature’s lap, with the beat of time, under the cover of the sky…….what a setting!!!!
If words could photograph the mind at these moments ……”This would be it, this would be it, this would be it”.
