Escape
Sometimes we all need a quick escape
Even if it’s for a day
or merely an hour
There is no place more serene
than a perfect ocean scene
The sounds of waves crashing
children playing
joggers’ pitter-patter rhythms on pavement
My escape
Took me away on a sunny day
Warmth from the sun
Erased stress from my face
painting joy in its place
The coolest breeze chilled my skin
Eyes closed embracing tranquility within
My escape
put me on a sailboat
where music danced with the tide
while waves carried me away
and love
came
like a
sunburst
sudden
temporary
relief
everlasting
mental
imprint
trickling
to
my
soul
Excellent!
