Just for Today

I wanted to be here by the sea...
to feel the warmth of the sun
the breeze run its' fingers through my hair
taste the salt in the misty air
to hear music of crashing waves and sea gulls
the water to massage my feet
and sand to play with my toes.

I wanted to fill my being with all of mother earth.

I needed her to hold me and rock me until I felt safe comfort.

I wanted to shed the heaviness of adulthood.

I wanted to be a child again.

I needed to feel the endless times of summers past.

I wanted to remember what it feels like to not worry.

I wanted my life to rest until I felt ready to join in again.

Just for Today...
