I am the maestro Of land sky and sea I am A living Breathing Symphony Of many sounds And sights That I have found Like the BOOM Of the ocean When I lift her up Then throw her down Her roar When I roll her To crash upon the cliffs Along the shore Or the tinkling Of her shattered pieces Falling back Into the tide As I fly - Fly - Fly - High Beneath The blue Of a North Carolinian sky Over--- The burning sand Slipping through The slender Sea Grasses That whistle As I tickle Every strand Whooshing - Through the cities And the towns Tumbling Bramble bushes All around Slamming shutters And banging doors Before I leave Turning every leaf On every tree As I fly- fly- fly- Higher and higher Piercing The heavy black clouds To make them cry With screams So loud They crack the sky That thunders In reply Throwing Bolts of lighting Pelting drops of rain As I fly- fly - fly - Through the night Into another day Where My concerto Finally Comes To rest Upon MY Dying b r e a t h

Elaine, I don't know if I have enough room to fave too many poems, but I swear nearly every one of yours I almost feel like faving! This is yet another of the gems in your treasury. A big top score for this one. What an ending you put on it.

What an awesome write here, Elaine!! I've always thought the wind through the firs here in Oregon sounds exactly like the tides of the ocean rolling in ... it all seems synchronized somehow!! Sure hope they find someone to buy PoetrySoup and don't just shut it down!! I'd feel lost without it!!
