Bernardo F. Asuncion Poet Sonnet

Calm Ocean of Mind

A wide, flat horizon expands without end,
A glass-like level mirrors the sky to blend;
Soft shimmers of light jitter on the water,
Tender waves roll in the sea blue in color.

Rhythmic lapping of water against the shore,
Distant songs of seabirds that I can't ignore;
A soothing hush like nature's whispering sigh
Delivers mild voice that I cannot deny.

A cool, salty breeze brushes my hair and skin,
Steps slightly sunk into sand send me to grin;
The light spray of serene sea mist on my face
Refreshes me on a sweet day's warm embrace.

Clean, briny scent of sea air tranquility
Fills up my mind to avoid being empty.

Bill Baker July 26, 2025 at 4:32 PM Nice to find a new source of good poetry that writes Sonnet, my favorite form of poetry. I enjoyed the imagery in this relax poem about the beach and clearing one's mind. Both activities I enjoy. I'm following your poetry now, Bernard, I hope you'll visit mine also. A poet friend to be, in Texas, Bill
