Happiness

I walk slowly down the long beach,

while my dog trots along beside me.

My feet sink into the warm sand.

The soft wind blows my hair,

rustles the tall palm trees.

I stop for a moment,

then sit,

and look out towards the horizon.

I wiggle my toes in the sand.

My dogs slow breathing calms me,

as she stretches out in the soft sand.

The waves steadily crash onto the shore.

I am calm.

I close my eyes,

soaking in the sun,

the rays beam directly onto my face

And though the water is cold,

I am warm.
