How Lovely To Be

How lovely to be far from the noisy street
On rocks on the beach where the land and sea meet
In the peace and quiet for an hour maybe more
The only sound the sound of the waves lapping on the shore
Of such peace and beauty a poet could write
A poem for others to read and enjoy and recite
On your skin the refreshing feeling of the ocean spray
In the clean coastal air on a nice Autumn day
A cottage by the ocean i often visualize
Away from the town of human created noise
But such a home does not come cheaply in the World of today
Though we all need our dreams as the wise one does say
With the sun at times peeping from behind the gray cloud
Far away from the traffic and the noisy crowd.
