Seashells hold the whispers of wind and sea
All of life becomes known to me
A world of wonder and wishes of no end
Sometimes real sometimes pretend.

You were right Rose, I did enjoy this. I have always held seashells in awe, ever since my grandmother told me the mermaids left them on the shore while I was sleeping. They remind me of her and all that can be.
