Darlene De Beaulieu Poet Verse

A Standing Rock In Water

Along the huge sandy beach
A large rock is seen
It stands out in the sand
When the water comes to shore
The huge rock is seen from the top
Making the rock look smaller
Yet when the water leaves the sand
Then the rock looks larger
No one knows how the rock
Got on the sandy beach

Jennifer Proxenos May 8, 2020 at 10:59 AM Hi Darlene - how are you - hope you are keeping safe - a refreshingly delightful poem. The oceans have been around for millions of years, so the rock was probably even bigger but the waves, currents and lap of the sea have weathered it. Well penned Darlene, Blessings, Jennifer. Darlene De Beaulieu May 8, 2020 at 12:21 PM Hello Jennifer Proxenos, yes the rocks were bigger then. It is amazing to see a lonely rock stand in the water looking big then looking small. Blessings and Hugs Darlene
