Naturacide

The crying ocean weeps fresh tears The vacant beach so moist is gone The sea swells like a throbbing cry Caught in the throat of loneliness Nature, tormented by time Erodes herself and ebbs and flows With the emotional tides of the moon As the dawn breaks, fragments, scatters and is gone The lone nascent emotion sparked within the soul Embraces the new, the unpredictable With all sense of time and order lost to the waves Man falls into new nothingness And finds sanity among the seasoned sighs of the tide The warning whispers of the sea The crying ocean weeps fresh tears The nascent horizon is swallowed The sea swells in a throbbing cry Caught in the throat of despair It is beautiful

The tone of this poem is excellent. I like the inspiring touch in the lines. I like this line especially, "And finds sanity among the seasoned sighs of the tide, the warning whispers of the sea." Water is always so cleaning. Congratulations on being featured. Great job! Joseph
