My Beach

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Went walking on our local beach

this afternoon

you might say it’s not much of a beach

With its pebbles

tide line of seaweed

barnacled breakwaters

screeching sea gulls.

But we love it.

And think it’s beautiful.

Because it’s ours.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The seas have lifted up, LORD,
   the seas have lifted up their voice;
   the seas have lifted up their pounding waves.
Mightier than the thunder of the great waters,
   mightier than the breakers of the sea—
   the LORD on high is mighty. Psalm 93 ³ -⁴
