The Beach
By
GosselinGirl

Mary  Frances loved the beach. Everyday she would walk the shores and pick up little pieces of treasures to take home with her. She fed the birds each morning with her leftover bread and the birds loved her.
The ocean waters cooled her feet as she walked. For once in her life she was at peace. Peace within her self. As she looked out upon the vast waters… she knew that she was blessed. Good things come to those who are patient and she had been patient. Now she was enjoying her gift from above…God’s Grace

    Nice...reminds me of my younger days as a little girl collecting beach glass, and being so happy with my feet in the water!

    This is so beautiful! You can find solace at the beach. It's pretty hard to put into words...Being at the beach is nature at its best. Powerful, beautiful and so vast.
