Joy
isn't that just a great word
simple, playful, light
not full of itself
but just
sits there
confidently
waiting for me
to own it

One of my most favorite places is a beach on the northern end of Anna Maria Island. We visit several times a year and each evening, The Professor and I pack up a bottle of wine and our chairs and stroll to an almost deserted beach for sunset.
Well .... we may have to share it with a few of the local inhabitants but I don't really mind.
They really put on a show for us, swooping and preening and fishing.
I took the above photo this past spring.
Everytime I look at it ...
it makes me
smile
smile
And for me,
that is pure
joy
