A place of perfect peace.

**
I often stand high up on the cliff
And gaze at the sea so still.
The depth of the blue,
Such a beautiful hue
Still gives me a wonderful thrill.

I imagine stormy days long gone,
When beneath a threatening sky,
Onto rocks cold and grey,
Drowning the sound of the seagulls’ cry.
**
On long hot summer days
When beneath the sun’s caress
Children played on the sand
Of this beach so grand
A sight which never failed to impress.

And even now in the chilly winter sun
This beauty fills me with such peace,
And as I watch a sailboat
On large waves trying to float
My wonder will never cease.
