BEAUTY TO CHERISH.

Author: niah9

Beautiful shell, so fragile the curves
Brittle yet fine, what an ocean serves
To be found on a beach, ready to collect
Beauty to cherish, sea lovers protects

Variety of sizes, from the ocean floor
Spent yet still beauty, who needs more
To remind them of times, life felt free
Seeking the future, searching life's key

A beach is the present, also the past
Footsteps in sand, we wish could last
In-coming tide, wipes the past away
Soon a new start, to welcomes a day

Abby....glad you liked....I wonder how many people have had a shell they cherished, though I was told recently, shells are becoming a thing of the past.....which is sad.....Kathy
