Evening Breeze

With gentle breeze

upon the shore

as the sun begins to dip

shadows growing longer

with evening upon us

like wine, so sweet

waves ebb and fro

across the shore line

with vivid colours seen

peace has calmed the air

cool waters rolling

soothing sounds are heard

as sea claws at the sand

be still thou aching heart

for day is all but over

night time brings sleep

oranges and yellows

streak across the sky

the earth grows darker

has calmly touched the world

as the tide falls away

what treasures revealed

brought upon the ocean

presented to the land

where sand meets ocean

it instills meditation

this peaceful inner state

is music to the soul

there is tranquility

as sun slips slowly away
