Roy Pett Poet Rhyme

Natures Lost Wonders

We stand on the shore where blue sky meets 

blue grey horizon seamless, faultless, dynamic,

tide laps the beach with timeless, metronome  beats,

seagulls hovering, hanging from the sky like ceramics,

waves building gaining power, spraying the sweet air,

our celestial star creating rainbows multi coloured prisms,

heart warming breeze gently blowing through your hair

sights and sounds extinguishing any thoughtless criticisms,

we stare out to sea in utter silence, hand in hand uninterrupted,

thoughts flowing through our minds feeding our hunger

for the serenity being served unconditionally, uncorrupted 

by natures natural beauty, no one could ever make a sunder,

we turn, and with our eyes we express our satisfied  heartfelt 

Pleasure experienced in unison motionless undying admiration,

beauty that I was witnessing, yours and what nature had dealt

was certainly a heavenly gift of love and to our satisfaction,

then slowly yet gently you fade as you have so many times 

before from my life slipping into just a memory of what was,

taken from me and your family was one of life's crimes

now alone I stand on this shore with thoughts of my loss.
