Blackened Ocean Waters

Blackened ocean waters
At the setting of the sun
Golden sand decorates the beach
A beacon for all to come 

Dangerous black towering rocks
Jut out from the shore
As the darken clouds reflect
The golden sun along even more

The mighty waves touched
Shore, with the symphony of sound
Waves then come courting the shore
In their wispy bridal gown

Waves kiss the mighty rocks
Slowly wear them down 
Softened with eons of time
Going slowly soft and round

Hi, Sara, thank you for your reminder on facebook! I do like this poem very and I could see with closed eyes the rocks and the waterfront. I lived at Antofagasta in the 1960ies (close by the Pacific) and also on Efate, Vanuatu, surrounded by the ocean....Gert
