Memories of Beauty

Broad strips of land cascading to the sea Shrouded in an early morning mist The West Coast’s beauty calls to me For on this rocky shore, we once kissed Sweet memories of love that I have missed December 28, 2019 For Dear Heart’s English Quintain Imagery contest

Sounds like a sweet ol' song Carolyn, love how you dropped the last two lines; good expression is all about good meter, tense and tone --- this poem leaves the reader on that rocky shore with sweet kisses...a welcomed finale;-) happy new year wonderful!
