Retreat


Retreat

I retreat to the ocean
in all of it's mightiness
giving me strength
and awareness
as I walk along the shore

I always find myself
coming here
whenever I need 
quietness
reassurance

I find happiness
along the sand
hearing the waves
seeing the bright sun
watching the shore birds play

No other place
can make me feel as safe
I retreat to the ocean
to find myself here
for I know I need it so

Oh how I love to retreat
to center my heart
walk away from routine 
let go of the rush
of my life

Retreat
gives me comfort
cleanses the heart
stills the mind
adding focus for me

I keep returning here
to the beautiful ocean
finding my center
refocusing my future
