Notes About The Poem

one of the sonnets I've written 12/26/19

Quiet Reflections-12-26-19

The waves cascade upon the starry shore
and wash across the grains of sand they find
to share its motion, a timeless captor
to give freedom to my spirit confined
soon it will soar in realms of passing dreams
that glide on the visions trapped in my mind
wondrous worlds where nothing is as it seems
colored kaleidoscopes there to remind
of landscape pictures where I'm a refuge
memories that flee, some are bad some are good
to sit on this shore where my thoughts flow free
and feel life's rhythm as it's understood
  to not be a hostage to years I bear
  escape life's chains, I'll never again wear
