Hypnotizing My Eyes

Rating: 4.5


Standing on the beach,
sand between my toes,
many birds, circling,
flying by so low.

Large whitecaps
forming, out at sea,
reducing to small waves,
slapping, at my knees.

A long orange streak,
hanging, low in the sky,
the setting of the sun,
hypnotizing my eyes,

A beautiful scene,
my imagination, so tall,
as I look at a picture,
hanging, on the wall.
