Poem Title:
Poem
The calm waters edge Splashes the shore, The tranquil place, The perfect place, Anyone would want to be here. The thoughts of family, friends Anyone you wish to share this moment with, Share this overwhelming feeling of joy swirling in your mind This most amazing scene. This picture displayed before your eyes Makes you want to cry The feeling of pride; Pride, love for what is in front of your eyes. This epic moment. Sun shining on the sea Creating an amazing contrast to the sky. Below the sea lays, Lay such unfathomable things. As the sun slowly falls from the sky You take time and realize The feeling of being free. When the sun’s light finally hides You sit on the soft white sand Pondering: How can such a beautiful thing exist in this world of death? The trees stir as the wind blows, There is no more warmth of day, Just the bright moons light And the crisp air of night. Close your eyes and relax. Dream of the peaceful things, You have seen. Awake. The same scene surrounds you Yet without the same feeling of joy. The suns clouded, Its darkness making the ocean look grey, What was once a nice day Has been shown the side of decay. The wind flows around But with a different tone, The gentle, reassuring breeze Dead. Something is wrong. The soft, quiet ocean starts to turn tide There is no sound. Lightening crackles shattering the silence Violent rain pounds the ground And the ocean turns black, The fury is coming. Spin, turn, look for an escape But no one is around; Shut your eyes, drown out the noise And think of that time. That time... The one with the nice breeze And the clear sky The one that made you cry; Cry those tears of happiness and content. The beautiful scene That beautiful time. The one with not a care in sight The one where stars where always shined bright And the water was a beautiful sight, Yes, yes, once upon a time...
