Balmy wind drifts by

Evening sun kissing the sea

Footprints in the sand

Steven... The words do more than immerse me in the scene, but help me fill my senses with the moment. The photo, too, is gorgeous.

such a peaceful journey to the sandy beach
when the veiw of the inner soul will teach
and then could it be that God is an easy reach
that is such a peaceful journey at the sandy beach
