Waves
By Brandi Wentworth
Sitting alone on the beach
Looking out into the horizon
the burning orb touches the water
waves crash ashore on the quiet sand
then descend back to the vast ocean
salty mist moistens my lips
warm air brushes across my skin
toes buried deep into the cool, white grit
tension eases from my muscles
rhythmic tides sweep away my worries
relaxation comforts my mind
you reach your hand down to hold mine
you silence the storm brewing within
you calm my waves
