Seacoast Treasures

"Hot summer nights, mid-July"

Seashells

On a sandy stretch by the soothing sea,

I embarked on a wondrous quest with glee.

Searching, seeking, with eager eyes,

For treasures amidst the seagull cries.

Beneath the cerulean sky's embrace,

I longed to discover shells' delicate grace.

Their myriad colors and shapes unknown,

Tales of their journey, carefully sown.

Weaving through the waves, with nimble feet,

I combed the shore, my senses complete.

Each shell I found, a pearl of the shore,

Whispering secrets that we tend to ignore.

The scallops, with patterns like flaming sunsets,

Astonished me, like art one never forgets.

The periwinkles, shining in pearlescent glow,

Carried whispers of love from long ago.

Amongst the jingle shells, at the ocean's edge,

I found wisdom waiting to be dredged.

Expressing stories of tides and renewal,

They reminded me of life's constant duel.

And as the waves gently kissed my bare feet,

I marveled at nature's rhythm, so sweet.

For every shell carried a story of its own,

A sliver of history, forever unknown.

In this search for shells, I found much more,

Appreciation, wonder, a deeply felt rapport.

A connection with nature, a bond so pure,

Amidst the seashells, memories endure.

So, if ever you wander along the shore,

Remember to never ignore the shells' lore.

For amidst their beauty lies stories untold,
