The scent of salty air #30DaysWild day 12

That salty air,
that tang,
you can taste
after a walk along the coast.
Is delicious.
 That light,
that clear blue light,
that only seems to be
near the sea.
Is beautiful.
That distant horizon,
that far away reach, 
 that only a coastal terrain can give.
Is cleansing.
Our walk, a couple of Friday evenings ago,
was sublime.
The gentle light,
glowing foliage,
foraging butterflies.
 Otherworldly welk egg cases,
discarded crab shells,
bleached seaweed.
And me.
Views, both near
and far.
Man made and natural -
all so magical during this evening walk.
Immersed in the view,
surrounded by nature,
listening to evening bird song,
watching the sun go down.
Beautiful.

  5. Oh how I agree; walks by the sea-side (in its broadest sense) are wonderful. You never know what you will see and find.
