Ode To A Seashell

I see you hiding there-  a  shimmer in the waves beneath my feet
I wriggle my fingers deep into the wet sand and feel the whole of you
Deep ridges -  smooth curves - A spiral of mystery  waiting to be discovered
I lift you to my ear and hear the song of the sea that lives within you
I breathe in your briny goodness - taste the salt spray on my lips
I wonder- Who will call you  home?
Toss me back and we shall see
