Leyla Farhat CaliforniaWind blowing, Heat of the summer on my face, The cool water beneath my toes. Beaches, sunsets, ice cream melting. Boardwalks, shopping, tanning. The hills, the valley, the fog rolling in. The stars, the sun, the clear blue sky. Relaxing in the sand, watching the waves roll. The laughter of children, Playing in the sand. Beach balls flying, Children splashing in the cool water. Calm night comes, Bonfires alight, Dotting the horizon, Like hundreds of small stars in the sand. Couples walking, Children sleeping, Dreams of the warm sun to come, Dancing in their heads. |
