• "MY COMFY PEACE ZONE"

    DEAR UNSEALED,
    My ‘comfy peace zone
    Is being alone,
    Or with a friend
    At the beach
    As to reach
    Out my hand to touch the wave,
    To breathe at air, catch the wave,
    With my toes embedded in the sand
    As I walk in the forever beach land
    I breathe in the positive icons of the ocean,
    as they are a magic potion
    of supernatural omnipotence of life
    the life
    of humans and all living creatures as they crawl
    and walk, sleep, produce and create,
    call
    out to me,
    “Come out to me, Vicki Lawana!”
    I regroup at the beach,
    Of which
    It is a quiet place for prayer, solitude and throwing out
    Negative icons to the breeze,
    To the wind, the universe of time and space.
    This is the case
    Of confessions to the sea
    From many stories of love, heartache, tears, joy
    And laughter of past present and future to be
    I look out at the ocean blue.
    Listen to the seagulls too.
    Although other humans are here
    I have created a tiny little sphere
    Of the atmosphere
    Of light around my space
    I sigh a bit.
    I remember my youth days,
    the 2am night drives to Malibu
    Parking my car feeling blue
    A romance gone awry, adrift, and away,
    As I step out my car
    Into the parking lot
    In my special spot
    I sigh.
    Cause now I say, “No worries!”
    All thoughts of grief & heartache
    Dissipate
    Into the ocean blue
    Throwing my cares to the waves, the salty air
    Of time & space
    Not a waste
    But a taste of salt and minerals seeping
    Through my toes radiating through my whole body
    Creating a flow of the case
    Of joy and time & space reality
    Of no more grief
    Cause I feel the ocean spray
    On my face
    On my body
    As I sink my barefoot toes in the sand
    Of this LA land.
    This is still my ‘comfy zone,
    As it my time alone
    To pray, to say
    I am okay.

    • This piece feels almost musical! It’s very animated and it commands attention. I love that the beach is such a tranquil space for you to the point where you can tune everything else out and fully connect with the nature around you. Thank you for sharing!

    • When I am in Miami, I always skate right by the ocean, find a quiet spot on the edge of the beach, and sit and be still. The ocean/beach really does have some magical powers to calm us and motivate us to be still. Thank you for sharing. <3Lauren
