to the sea plus

two entries
thank you all


"to the sea"

to the sea
to the sea
open your world

unmatched by others
in every way
in every way

keeper of secrets
you hold our souls
you hold our souls

your powers bewitch
such sights enchant
every sound lingers

far and wide unveil
never are we the same
never are we the same

witnessing gliding eagles
healing from golden sands
amazements are everlasting

to the sea
to the sea
blessed are we

"as moons transition" 

time and sands move
yet we think and dwell
why is life a bed of nails
why are all windows closed
where are the butterflies
where is the light

our mosaic life reveals
flooding rains
dead end roads
where are birds of spring
where are church bells that ring

as moons transition to suns
behold such a moment
passing of the torch
passing of light

closed windows open
birds of spring sing

I love the sea, Lisa, and living on a small island is a guarantee that I am never far from it. Your 2nd poem is also expressive, as your words transition from one image to another (the passing of the torch). ~ Best regards // paul

Thank you once again. Paul. Truly. Hi. I too love the sea. I grew up spending summers on the beach to which I will never forget. The ocean and her being are in my soul. (smile) I never take reviews or commentary for granted so I very much appreciate your intake on the entries. Truly. Have a wonderful night filled with peace blessings and health. (smile)

What wonderful poems you write My dear friend. I would like to spend a day just reading Lisa poems. You are such a darling poet, inspiring, fun, gentle, and informative. I enjoyed your repetitive words in the first poem about the sea, it just makes so much more emphasis on a poem. Thank you dear Lisa for your kind beautiful comments, you are truly loved on this site. Hugs, blessings, Jennifer.
