Notes About The Poem

Oregon Coast Vacation

Oregon Coast Vacation My heart yearns for a place of peaceful desire A place where the impulse of adventure will entice Florence, Newport, and Yachats Oregon Coast where the tall pine grow Where rivers and ocean are turquoise gradient of paradise A place where the impulse of adventure will entice Camping, hiking, dune riding, and sightseeing bringing you back to childhood Where rivers and ocean are turquoise gradient of paradise The gentle swells of the waves rise and fall; smells of brine and wet-wood Camping, hiking, dune riding, and sightseeing bringing you back to childhood Cool twilight of the day fades drawing shadows obscured by trees The gentle swells of the waves rise and fall; smells of brine and wet-wood A lovely quiet haven for elk, deer, bear, owls, pelicans, and sea lions Cool twilight of the day fades drawing shadows obscured by trees As we gaze up towards the universe twilight; kisses settling in with tranquility A lovely quiet haven for elk, deer, bear, owls, pelicans, and sea lions Could not deny ourselves the intervention with nature’s beauty As we gaze up towards the universe twilight; kisses settling in with tranquility Florence, Newport, and Yachats Oregon Coast where the tall pine grow Could not deny ourselves the intervention with nature’s beauty My heart yearns for a place of peaceful desire 2/17/2016

Awe!!!! Thank you, Barbara, I lived there for over 30 years and loved the drive down the curvy road following the river to the coast and stopping by Scottsburg by a farmer's field and see all the elk laying in the field.
