Echoes Of The Silent Shore ' Poetry Contest. Sponsor Mystic Rose Rose. Posted 9/3/25
~~~~ We spent our days down by shore Wading out in the placid seas Or jumping waves that seemed to roar Rolling in on a warm sweet breeze The castles built when we were young Bedecked with shells and seaweed strands Small starfish from the waves were flung We crowned our fort with starfish bands The jelly tots and ice cream cones Candy floss and sherbet lolly Collecting pure white cuttle bones Carrying home for pretty Polly I sit here on this silent shore In bitter wind from out the west I grieve my friend you are no more But memories echo… you were the best
