A PERFECT DAY
The day was still
Silence was the only sound
The golden sun smiled
Spreading it’s warmth upon the sand
My bare feet, engulfed by the lapping waves,
Wanted to dance
The vast expanse of sea glistened like gold
As it reflected the sun’s glorious rays
Painting a beauty that only nature can.
Lying back on the warm sand the gentle
Breeze brushed my cheeks, like an angel's kiss
All at once the world felt at peace
The day was ending , and as I smiled back at the sun
It slowly hid behind a cloud
The lapping waves were leaving the shore, as the tide turned.
Feeling calm and happy I set off for home
Giving thanks for nature’s special gift
A perfect day
As winter winds start to bite, memories of that special summer day

A great refreshing...especially for our senses in this barren cold week, at my place MINUS TEN...thank you for your jewel that I´ve found near your shore...recommended!
I was walking through your poetryland and I´ve found this jewel in the sand, my dear, I´ll be recommending this
You captured the moment beautifully Pat. I could almost smell the salt air.
Great images of a perfect day, beautiful Pat.
You paint beautiful word pictures of this perfect day that warms the senses. I feel this could be a meditation to help heal stress, and the photograph complements the poem wonderfully~
this is soft and special ... a gift from mother nature to you ...to be treasured till the end of time .
Warm and beautifully penned scene to look back on Pat. Thank you for sharing.
Wonderful imagery Pat. I remember such times as the cold wind bites in our wintry village. A lovely warm day indeed.
a lovely visual poem my friend!
that was a real treat to my eyes as i could have actually pictured what all you have described :)
