A Serendipitous Affair
The wind swept, raging Sea, cast an excitement in the Air
So invigorating, to feel the warm spray of the salt watery Air
Alive, I felt! Adrenalin running through my veins! I could hardly hold the Reins

Enhanced the warm state of this Sea-Bed.

And the Waves to a powerful and soulful, rolling Ease.
The Sun-Setting neon Rainbow, sank ever so low!
This was my Turf to Body Surf.
The reminiscence of a Storm on It's way out to Sea.
The end of the Day the beginning of Night,
But the Mind never ceases to take Flight.

I feel like all my sins
are washed away.
I feel beautiful
like a mermaid
and graceful
like an Angel fish
