Leap year
White cotton buds in a blue clad sky

Another year has passed swiftly by

The storm clouds they have abated

A tranquil dawn has been created
To walk the nearby coastline

Views so beautiful and so sublime

Lapping waters onto shifting sands

Dogs running, lovers holding hands
Children laughing,running,playing

People silently strolling, praying

Scattered seashells softly glistening

In the hope the Gods are listening
Allay all the doubts and fears

Dry all the worried tears

Will bring but happiness and cheer

Throughout the coming year.
