walking in the beach


image:google


walking bare foot on the sand 

acts as therapy to my aching feet

the giggling waves tease my toes

leaving behind the moist memories

the saltiness in air matches my tears

I taste them with love...

I expand inside to allow life to happen

witnessing the journey ...

  4. I love your words 'allow life to happen', for that's all we can do. Life becomes a little easier when we embrace what is. Such a joy to read this morning :)

  5. Allowing life to happen...I like that concept. Somehow I think one has to come to terms with just kind of letting life flow! Lovely journey in this poem, Arathi!
