Sea shells on the ground
White sand is so beautiful
I look at the sea
It is so very endless
And blue, sparkly, and gorgeous
(unknown)
seashell found on shore
beauty of color and sound
listening to waves
precious shell now in my home
sea sounds go on forever
The prompt for Tanka Splendor – Sea Shells is to write a tanka
inspired by one written by an unknown author (in blue).

Thank you, Kerfe. Yes, actually, what you hear when you press a shell to your ear is the workings of the gears and mechanism of the sensory time machine held within. 😉
