A Treasure Concealed

Smoky puffy clouds hovered around Pungent waves engulfed thy existence Plummeting gullible hopes to ground Troubled waters obscured persistence. Exploding, unnerving, dark remorse Glanced for an anchor to float away Behold the dazzling ripe inward source Auspiciously holding thee at bay. Hath saved all years those memories loved Nourished thy soul and dissolved in thee Wrapped by thy mother and beloved Fear not, unshackle that warmth, foresee! Love of all had been thy pious bridge Cross over! Treasured faith holds that ridge. May 12, 2020 Bridge over troubled waters Poetry Contest Sponsored By John Hamilton Winner: Third Place
