My ecstacy is strolling along the ocean
Breathing deep within
The wonderful aroma and
Feeling the gentle waves upon my feet.
It is my place of serenity
Takes me anywhere I care to go
Gently allowing my body to float upon the waves
Or happily splashing thru it all.
I love the seashore
My get a way from the hum drum of city life,
Giving much pleasure
Too fill me up.

As I was strolling thru all these poems
Never did I find mine
Don't dismay said the quiet small voice
Within, we shall perservere.
Perservere I did to no avail
Even forgot my log in
Did not quit
Keep trying a little more.
So hear I am astrolling
Down among these beautiful poems
Looking around
and taking care.

Little do we know what life is really all about?
We stumble here and we stumble there
We learn a little and think we finally got it,
Then as we grow older -
Something happens we start to be aware.
Tis like a breath of fresh air,
We are happy for
We finally have let go!!!
