Shadow Hamilton Poet Villanelle

Droplets

Water falling, trickling downward
wet mossy stones shine and glimmer
droplets dancing tumbling onward

Soft tinkles as they head coastward
the sounds echo like a crooner
water falling, trickling downward

A mast standing out, a halyard
of the ships bobbing in fervour
droplets dancing tumbling onward

Streams joining rivers flood backward
the noise  loud as it gets faster
water falling, trickling downward

Thunderous waves heading southward
ships  tossing, sails all a flutter
droplets dancing tumbling onward

Tidal water becomes wayward
waves flowing over the breaker
water falling, trickling downward
droplets dancing tumbling onward

Poet Tacito June 13, 2013 at 8:38 AM The "Tidal water tidal" line threw me off a tad. But, not enough to keep me from adoring the atmosphere in these lines. Very nicely done! :) Shadow Hamilton June 13, 2013 at 9:57 AM Drake hi and ty I removed it stupid me. I altered that sentence a tad and forgot it grrr lol glad you still enjoyed Shadow x
