Tomorrow’s Tide

The feeling of the fresh

ocean breeze, glimpses

of distant keys, swaying trees,

and sandy feet bring me

a sense of peace. My worries

fade away, every dark day

becomes one with bright

rays of light. Sand castles.

No hurry. No hassle.

Time flows with the tides.

Waves crash against

collosal cliffs. I can check

visiting heaven off

my bucket list. Flying kites.

Bonfires at night.  The crisp

mist drizzles as the water

and the shore kiss. The tide

may be low tonight, but it

will rise tomorrow. Mother

nature takes control. We

are at her mercy. Life gets

rough when the sea misbehaves,

but on the bright side,

we learn to ride the waves.
