Life's waves

A rose hasn't a heart without its core. 
A house is dark without windows.
A tree grows leaves again after they died.
A meadow has green grass, but it also becomes dry.
The spring blooms flowers and beauty that disappears, but always regrow.

The summer means children making sandcastles on the beach, joy and fun to capture.
The sea has its way to be, tough, soft and gentle or impossible to cope with.
The life's waves are the same as the sea waves, 
difficult to stay on the board all the time.

We surf for new achievements,
we forget about what we can 
lose meantime.

Daniel Henry Rodgers Date: 4/9/2024 9:38:00 AM Dear Maria, your poem beautifully captures the cyclical nature of life's ups and downs, likening it to the sea's ebb and flow. The imagery is evocative, touching the reader's own experiences of navigating life's challenges and joys. I loved your reflection on the impermanence of beauty and the importance of resilience is both poignant and empowering. Well done. - Blessings, Daniel Login to Reply Maria Fernandez-Garcia Date: 4/9/2024 11:56:00 AM Hello Daniel. Thanks a lot for stopping by and leaving your kind words. I appreciate it.
