Description
a walk on the beach
in the hours of dawn
heart heavy
feeling rather miserable
shoulders hanging
deep in thought
the light catches something
you look
oh - just an empty shell, you thought
yet you're drawn closer
bend down
an unexpected smile appears
mmmmm...
looks like a beach butterfly
or maybe a little treasure chest...
you sit down
stare
thinking how you almost missed it
then slowly in your mind
you start unpacking the treasures
one by one
the countless blessings
just for the taking
there is sunshine
and a thunderstorm
hope for the future
and a child's smile
health
peace of mind
an eagle's first flight
love for all
and so much more
oh, what a joy...
Please help youself to whatever treasure you need today to put a smile on your face and hope in your heart!

Excellent image and poem Carin!!!!
I especially love the sand in this. The color...the wet packed-ness of it. It lays a fabulous canvass down for this shot. Stellar work.
I looked inside this treature chest, and the first thing I saw was your loving heart, Dierbaar! Thank you for sharing it with me. Ek het jou lief! :X Stywe druk ... >:D<
Wonderful catch! The colors are outstanding, the whole compositiion, too!
Great Scott, at first glance a pocket watch just moments after sulphuric acid was poured into its intricate workings! Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble... In any event, stellar color, clarity, composition and textures in this wonderful offering, Carin!
This is stunningly gorgeous! I definitely agree that the sense of color here is astounding, and almost otherworldly. Everything in this works so perfectly!
