A Quiet Death

These quiet tides of wind and wave Skies that meet in the dance of water and sand Take my breath my lifted weight be enslaved To the bounty of beauteous life so grand Drifting so vain to the vale of graves January 7, 2020 Writing Prompt-English Quintain Imagery-Poetry Contest Sponsored by Dear Heart

Lonna, congratulations on your Honorable Mention in my writing prompt challenge, with this write. It would have placed higher except for that last line that does not rhyme (sand, grand, graves?) _Constance
