Take Flight

I want to be at the beach.

There, I said it.

It is such a beautiful day here,
full of fall glory and perfect temperatures.

I could almost be seduced into thinking
that this is the perfect day.

But for some reason,
I just want to see
and hear
and smell
and taste
and feel

the water
the sand
the breeze
the gulls
the waves crashing

the solitude that this time of year offers
at the beach.

I'm never quite sure what sets me off
when I want to be at the beach.
I just get "set off"
and I long to be there.

So, the next best thing to being there
is to go through
all my beach files
and remember
the sweetness of being there.

Yep, I'm ready to take flight......
but ....
another day, I guess.
