My sunrise beach companion
· by Roy Edlund

When walking alone on the beach, I sometimes come across a fellow heliophile, marveling at the rising sun.
Well, I can't be certain what is going through the mind of this beach companion, or if he is gazing with intent or simply facing into the wind.
But I like to imagine him recalling a morning early in his youth, standing wobbly on some island off the coast of Maine watching his first sunrise emerging from the big water.
"A new life on a new day," his mother used to say.
Is that a tear of joy? Or sand in his eye from the blowing wind?
Something to think about.
Love from here. ❤️
