Sandcastle

the speed limit is 25 mph and strictly enforced
there are no traffic signals only stop signs
there are two bakeries...both simply delicious
funnel cakes in the summer and tasty freeze all year round
art and antiques well within walking distance
trinkets and souvenirs and a farmer's market bonanza
ducks and seagulls play for hours on end
kettle corn and flavored taffy with just enough sugar
lawn chairs and flip flops in every color imaginable
hot sand and umbrellas make it all come together
movie night and live music for lovers and children
cruise ships and sailboats set an amazing backdrop
and ginormous sunrises day after day after day
occasional weddings and events fill the calendar each year
endless fishing and horseshoe crabs cause visitors to take notice
and a humongous wooden cross stands tall in the center
the grand finale is the soft pink sandcastle that's
achored in the middle of our quaint little town
it stands four stories tall and firmly holds forty-two families
favor and blessed by my Savior
i blissfully reside in a suite on the third floor
and until the wind blows it away
i'm a real live princess living out her dream

This is truly a dream that I held in my heart and by HIS grace, it came true.

Cannot tell you how it feels to see His Glory day after day in the sunrise, sunsets, rainbows, night sky and cloud formations...

The love I always longed for has chosen me. Exhale...I'm finally home!

Love and peace
