Constance La France Poet Free verse

Musing My Soul By the Sea

 
lonely my steps take me to the sea
with her echoing verge
and I linger there pondering my existence_
the sun rests on a whispering wave 
pure gold and motionless and tranquil
she hangs there reluctant it seems
among streaks of mauve, gold and clouds 
she seems to float on a rolling sea
oh, what a beautiful eventide_
I muse my soul-   my journey thus far
as the dimming orb sinks into the azure blue
silently gone, gone, gone, gone_  
'till I am wrapped in hushed evening shadows
