a walk on the beach - narrative poem
to a walk on the beach
nothing can compare
ocean flowing by your side
cool wind in your hair
a walk on the beach
moon glowing bright in the sky
ocean waves splashing
engulfed in the moonlight
wind flying past
singing in the air
shells wash ashore
like chimes against the ocean floor
a walk on the beach
completely on your own
yet somehow
you don’t feel alone
“follow the music”
you hear the wind say
so you listen
and go on your way
the longer you walk
the louder it sings
so you sing along
as the clocktower dings
you’ve walked all night
and you’ve started to tire
so you lay in the sand
to sleep till morrow
when you awaken
the ocean has calmed
the wind sings no longer
and the seashells, are gone
you say it was a dream
but some still recall
that day the ocean
sang for them all
