If Only
The sun rises early in the morning
Yellow, like the yolk of an egg
Shining through the windshield from where I sit
Feeling the warmth on my face
Attracting onto my clothes
The view was more than a dream
The need to going outside is a daydream
The air was nice and cool
I wonder
If the ocean animals feel it too
Feel the wind as if it were blowing you away
To your chance of freedom and happiness
Somewhere in California, I stay
Feeling the sand on my fingers
Soft and Smooth
Rocky and Unstable
Impulsive desire to make Sand Castles
As if I imagined to be in a massive battle
Promises to make
Soothing songs I hear from the stands
Hearing the Symphony of Music
Families filled with laughter
Their faces are brighter
From when they were at home.
Joy I see
The instinct to have that is echoing
I see the coast
As I get Closer and Closer to the Ocean
Putting my bare feet on the surface
I feel colorless fluid that is which to say
Water
I wish there would be an otter
From San Mateo to Santa Barbara in the south
Ecosystems there to see
Starting with the Horizon
Seagulls and leftover wings
Some say,
“they’re thinking of what life could be without broken wings”.
Fishers I see from the distance
Water I see to brilliance.

California and I'ts features inspired me to write this piece. Since I like to write, read, and rhyme with words. I also love to be a creative person. I simply expressed my emotional thoughts and feelings to this. I grabbed words to express how much I miss California.
