Gilded Waters Crinkle

I listen to the waves washing ashore when the wind is but a breeze, nothing more. And while sitting all alone on the beach, I gaze up at heaven, just out of reach. A breathtaking scarlet sun weaves twilight, a coat of many colors, stitched by light. And awed by Nature's beautification, I unleash my mind's imagination. Darkness defuses day's diminished glow as a sprinkling of stars begins to show. And bathed in quietude, I've naught to say, watching today morph into yesterday. Sol is dying, yet I can't look away, till Dusk absorbs the sun's very last ray. And remain transfixed, till the stars twinkle, moonbeams dance, and gilded waters crinkle. Embracing Nature, as I would a friend, I feel God's presence within at day's end. And purging my mind of all sense of time, I discern peace in Nature's paradigm.

Wow, Emile. This is surely one of the best poems I've seen for the picture contest. I live by the beach and it's so easy to get lost in thought while staring out at the waves. Beautiful! Best wishes in Brenda's contest. Hugs, Carolyn
