Written: June 21, 2023 ______________________________________________________________ As an island in isolation, in an oceanic lure I stand firm, a solitary figure, in this vast azure Facing the seashore, where waves crash in an uproar Their mighty roar echoes through my core. They touch the land with force and might. Creating a symphony of the seashore's delight But as quickly as they come, they retreat. Leaving behind a foamy sheet Broken dreams are shattered. Akin to pieces of shattered glass. The seashore becomes flattered. For the waves eternal dance In solitude, I find solace and peace. As the rhythm of the waves brings me release I am but a witness to their beauty and grace. As they rise and fall in this sacred place The seashore, a sanctuary of dreams untold Where the ocean's secrets unfold With every crashing wave, I am reminded Of the power of nature, undivided In this moment of sheer grace I embrace the ebb and flow of this vast space. For within these shores of solitude I find my own quietude. In the midst of chaos and commotion I find serenity and devotion.

Mention the sea and I'm hook, line and sinker, even if my condition precludes me from swimming now. A lively poem.

Lovely ! There is beauty and life on a seashore. As we watch the restless sea where waves never die, it is strange that we experience a rare peace. Watching the sea's turbulent motion in solitude, makes us brim with a rare serenity. Straight into my FAVE
