Von McKnelly
There’s a time when the wind settles to a calm breeze and the land cools from the heat of the day.
A time to stop, look and listen to the sounds of the breathing ocean and to gaze off to the heavens.
(yes I do love my sunsets)
LjMaxx replied
My favorite place to be in the whole world..
“I sit & I wait for the morning to come, hidden outa sight and I wait for the sounds then I smile at the sea and the sea smiles at me “
T.Y. Von. Pleased for your visit tonight..:)
