Ocean Senses

 

Cliff and I spent a couple of hours on the beach, today.

All but one of my ocean senses were invoked.

 

Sight:

I watched pelicans dive bombing....trying to catch fish. I watched as the waves rolled in and left again. I watched the seagulls soar just above the surf.

I saw how blue everything looked and I couldn't get enough. 

 

Sound:

I listened to the waves gently crashing on shore. I listened to the sounds of the seagulls. And, I listened to nearby children romping in the waves and their mother calling them in. 

 

Touch:

I felt the cool, slightly damp sand beneath my feet. I felt the warmth of the sun and then later, the cool ocean breeze.

 

Smell:

The smell of salty air reminded me to just breathe.
