The sun’s last fiery rays had vanished,
Allowing the shy moon to peak out in the sky.
Dark crests of crashing waves surround you.
The stars are little spots of mystery splashed
Across the great, black vastness of the skies.
The soft sand is dappled by the moonlight.
A cool breeze gently plays across your face.
The moon beams down at you from up high.
The radiance of it puts you in the spotlight.
The waves wash over you in the damp sand.
You get a whiff of a fresh, salty scent.
It’s a refreshing aroma and fills you with energy.
Soon the fragrance of nearby palm trees
Mixes with the salty smell of the ocean.
This is when you realize that
You are on a moonlit beach.
