My House of Dreams

In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Dream Home.”

On this snowy day it is nice to dream about my dream home!

It would be built near the ocean, where I can open the windows and hear the roar of the ocean waves and the cries of the seagulls. Feel the ocean breeze.

The colors of my house would be soft blues and rose colored. Seashells would be placed around and pictures of sunsets and sunrises over the ocean would grace the walls.

I would have my own writing nook. My cozy room would have a balcony where when I needed some fresh air to feel invigorated I could walk out on it and sit and write, hearing the sounds of the ocean. I would have a desk in my room, but also one of those big comfy wicker chairs to curl myself up in. The walls would have a border of sea gulls flying as my thoughts flew free through my pen or keyboard. There would also be a large sandcastle with a moat around it painted on the wall. It  would  remind me of the imagination of children and to let my imagination soar.

There would be a soundproof room that would be my husband’s getaway where he could play his drums and music as loud as he wanted. He could have a nice leather recliner in the corner of the room for when he wanted to rest and escape from the world.

In the living room would be a huge salt water fish tank of all kinds of beautiful fish that we could gaze at and at night there would be a light for it showing up the vivid colors. The coffee table in the middle of the room would be a glass covered top with seashells under it. All different shaped and unique ones.

Ahhhh yes, the house of my dreams would be so relaxing, for I could walk right out the front door into  paradise!
