Beach Finds

Photo by Pan Xiaozhen
I stroll along the sand
a treasure in my hand
sea glass, pebble or shell
smoothed by sea salt and time
sublime sculptures each
luck picked up on the beach
all is well, all is well

I love searching for treasure on the beach—no matter what the weather.

I wrote Beach Finds in response to Sadje’s #WhatDoYouSee #322 photo prompt.

My thanks to Sadje for the inspiration —
and to you, dear reader, for spending time with my poem.
