Coarse Grain Sand, To Taste


Take endless parts ocean water.
Add flecks of time.
Mix initials with + signs into hearts drawn in the sand.
Throw kids into the mix.
Do not discard any driftwood, it represents the advice of elders.
At this point, a castle should begin to form.
Apply special potions to prevent burning.
Research high and low tides; reactions are easier to see at low tide but high tide cause the finest things to rise to the surface. 
Oh, the horizon isn't going anywhere, how you look at it is just changing.
Stir yourselves into the current, it will move through you, even hold you up enabling you to float...if you surrender to it.
The heat source most recommended for this recipe is the sun, offer your blessings to it...but do not look directly into it.
Hold a large shell up to your ear; when you hear the ocean though it may not be there, your imagination is ready.
Always, anywhere, anytime and to all recipes, add coarse grain sand, to taste.
Close your eyes as you run your fingertips through it. You can feel the beaches it has washed in and out of, you can detect the long memory of it's friendship with the moon.
You can hear laughter.
Different climates and conditions may effect the time in which it takes to complete this recipe.
But when it's right, you know.
Enjoy.
