Sea sleeping

I sleep like the sound of the ocean: tiredness builds, rises, spills over. 
I crash into it and sink, spreading thin the depths of my mind. 
I stretch and slow, creeping up to shore. 
In my dreams I kiss the sand. 

Then slowly,
I recede back into waking, reluctant to return to the sea. 
 

-- 

It has been such a blessing to sleep to the sound of the ocean. I wish I could bring it with me. 
Maybe I just need it get a noise machine...who am I kidding it would never be the same. 
Back to the frozen land of beer and cheese tomorrow. 

Bss,

Marybeth
