the beach at dawn,

I spied some shells

and reached for just one;

it glistened so brightly

in the morning sun,

catching my eye

as it nestled there.

I picked it up

and held it to my ear

wondering what,

if anything,

as I held it close,

what I heard

as I listened there

touched my heart

and soothed my soul

as it spoke to me

singing sweet lullabies;

I heard heavenly notes

of love that simply

couldn’t be denied;

I heard soft

and gentle whispers

singing precious songs

that made you feel near

allowed me to release

each one of my worries

the shell that spoke to me,

and placed it on a shelf

so that every day I’d see

it glistening in the sun,

a reminder of that morning

as the sun began to shine

when love was young

and so were we,

treasured moments shared

when my spirits need a lift,

I put that special shell

up to my ear once again

and even from this distance

and after all these years,

I hear the ocean’s subtle roar

and recall that day

on a sandy beach so far away

when our dreams began

this morning,

I can hear the ocean sing

the same song that I heard

that morning
