Joseph's Double Swap Contest ~ July 13, 2025
On golden shores waves were crashing Beams of sunlight, I saw flashing and stopped rowing. I stilled my oars. Waves were crashing on golden shores Gulls shrieked while the wind was blowing I stilled my oars and stopped rowing. Morning skies turned blue as dawn peeked While the wind was blowing, gulls shrieked. When daylight broke, I thought of you. As dawn peeked, morning skies turned blue, And I recalled when last we spoke. I thought of you when daylight broke. It'd been too long. I was appalled when last we spoke, and I recalled my words seemed to be a swan song. I was appalled. It'd been too long. I felt remorse upon the sea. A swan song, my words seemed to be. Reality hit with full force. Upon the sea, I felt remorse.
