Sun Worship

The waves
Kiss her feet.
The sun
A lovers caress
Upon her face.
The breeze
Running its fingers
Through her hair.

The sand billows up

From beneath her step.
The seagulls take flight
As she races towards them.
The sea grasses cheer her on
From their place
At the edge of it all:
Observing everything.

She slows
Circling like a ballerina
Her arms outstretched
For her captive audience
As her smile rivals the sun.
She is freedom and joy
And she is what everyone
So desperately searches for.

The waves return for more.
The sun continues to stare.
The breeze loses its breath at her beauty.
The sand settles.
The seagulls land.
The sea grasses continue her praise.
And she's off again-
The unrelenting heartbeat of the sea.
