Someone Special

Avart lay sprawled out on the sand as he marveled at the beauty before him. The sun sat high on its lofty throne in the blue sky as it scattered tiny diamonds amongst the waves and sands. The sight alone was enough to stop a philosopher mid-contemplation and force them to smell the salty roses. It wasn’t even the natural spectacle of the beach that had him captivated though. Nor was it the calm breeze that tenderly wafted all of his worries away. It was his wife; the brightest diamond in the sea. There she stood, halfway submerged in the water, her sun-kissed skin glimmering like a finely cut gem; her long fluffy hair billowing in the wind.
