there's magic outdoors...

The beauty of a still seagull never struck me so much as it did this afternoon...
But then, it IS awhile since last I took a walk outdoors...

sands pocked with seagrass tendrils and footsteps
bluest seas with white froth

and the elegant beauty of a seagull

there's magic outdoors

just walking the waters...
