Hearing the waves crash on the rocks

Seeing the sun shimmer on the sand

Birds soaring through the sky

As the waves reflection shines off the suns radiance

Staring off into the endless sunset

the soft smell of salt

a breath of fresh air

the sky changes from minute to minute

from orange yellow to flamboyant pink,

the clouds painted  with changing colours as the sun goes down.

It seems in a hurry to disappear

Slipping quickly behind the line of the horizon spreading its last rays.
