“Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson
Where Shoes Fear to Tread
If I could be anywhere, it would be the beach.
Where peace, sun and sand are within my reach.
Nothing matters except what is in front of me.
Water and sky stretching beyond what the eye can see.
Sand for a blanket and a tree for shade.
Cooling off with with some icy lemonade.
With a pen and pad I plan my future.
Whispering my requests to the breeze, I await an answer.
