Invitation to the Beach





Things that grow in sand


and the path to the sea.



Perfect weather and Connecticut in the far distance.


Sunday morning and no one on the beach


the water clear and brisk at first


looking East to the Lilco Towers.


The treasures of the picnic table


and more vegetation by the car.

    at the beach...

    i vow to Never take
    my own beach
    for-granted
    and
    do wish

  5. Elizabeth, I so love your beach photos, and as I was looking at them and imagining the sound of the sea, I wondered if you were finding any shells.

    And presto! There they were on a picnic table top.

    How I used to love searching for shells at childhood beaches in Virginia or North Carolina. That seems a lifetime ago now, but you've brought back a very sweet memory.

    Thank you. xo
