Restless Slumber
#WritcoStoryPrompt27

A flock of geese flying high up against the blue sky, squawking away in familiar harmony, roused me into that state of consciousness that lingers just before awakening from a restless slumber.

The harsh slap of salty, surf laden water struck me with a ferocity that had me gasping into complete consciousness. My shoulders and arms felt sore, almost as if they didn’t belong to me anymore.

How could they when I had spent more than forty eight hours clinging on a piece of driftwood in the middle of the bloody ocean!

I don't know how to get back. Sand, heat and wave won't me out of the shore.
