At The Beach

the serenity of the ocean
the pristine whiteness of the beach
vivid remembrance of a person
out of my heart’s reach

you looked at me and the eyes
had a naughty glimpse
red lips with a smile so shy
shimmering with a glossy sheen

the gentle ocean breeze
bubbly waves lapping the beach
this heart is not at peace
those rosy cheeks like a peach

I tried to touch your smile
When I’m feeling blue
It took me awhile
To realize it’s just a photo of you !


(The beach was beautiful and so are you!)
