Oregon Coast
I want to go to a place where the ocean roars.
I want to go to a place where you can hear the wind rushing past your ears.
I want to go to a place where seagulls soar so low their wings nearly touch the shadows on the sand .
I want to go to a place where the water is so cold it stings your feet daring you to wade just a little bit deeper.
I want to go to a place where the whole sky is painted grey and the salty air fills your cheeks with color.
I want to go to a place where the sand swirls up and stings your ankles and gets caught in your hair.
I want to go to a place where I can bundle up in a sweatshirt sit on the sand and feel completely safe and completely vulnerable.
I want to go to a place where I can watch the water churn and froth and splash and rage.
I want to go to a place where the people have all gone where the wind has driven them away.
I want to feel the spray and hear the birds.
I want to taste the salt and smell damp sand.
I want to go to the coast, where the earth meets the sea.
I want to watch them intertwine and argue in a never ending dance
Always repeating itself, never the same.
Take me there. That is were I want to be.
