One-Lined Poetry: Happiness

A phrase about one simple pleasure in life

She lounges in the shade, resting for this afternoon’s hike, as I walk along the beach accompanied by the merging waves and shoreline.

I love water. She’s loves rest. We love each other. Simple.

I find joy and a meditative, soothing experience near water, especially in the warmth of the sun. Bliss. Serenity. Everything else, seemingly important, those day-to-day stresses, are a little less so.

Thank you Ntathu Allen and Melanie J. for the inspiration to write this.
