Description
Finding Seashells ~ author unknown.
"Come walk with me
Along the sea
Where dusk sits on the land
And search with me
For shells are free,
And treasures hide in sand."
A tiny snail rests on a Conch which is also a type of sea snail.
The term 'conch' (pronounced "konk") is used to describe over 60 species of sea snails which have a medium- to large-sized shell. In many species, the shell is elaborate and colorful. Probably the most well-known species is the queen conch, which is the image that might come to mind of a sea shell. This shell is often sold as a souvenir, and it's said you can hear the sea if you put a conch shell to your ear. Textures added. All Rights Reserved.

Thatīs a moment, Theresa....to offer a bed of mother-of-pearl wisdom to this little one, in a humbe disposition, taken care is a miracle. I love them both, greandur and minimalism as well, intimate disposition and extreme beauty. Rosa
