Walk On The Beach

I look ahead, colours of blue and yellow are shining as the sun rises upon the deep blue sea.

The soothing sound of waves crashing on the shore is ruptured by the screeching of seagulls.

You inhale the fresh sea air, the salty water makes your jaw clench.

Yellow sand, the colour of the sun is comes up between your toes as you walk, it is as if you're walking on yellow velvet.

The smell of sea-shells and starfish washed up on the shore is like the oceans natural perfume that follows you throughout the day.
