Sigh After Play

"over the waters blue the night winds sigh, the breakers roar ..." ~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge Night winds sigh Sigh over the seas Sigh in sync Sync with the moon Sync with the stars Stars brighten the night Stars brighten the waves Waves roar loud Waves move the ship Ship going home Ship running smooth Smooth ocean ride Smooth waters glide Glide to the beach Glide and float Float and swim Float on the sea Sea turns rough Sea looks black Black clouds above Black the darkness Darkness holds secrets Darkness whistles through Through the waters Through the ocean Ocean blue and white Ocean deep and wide Wide country side Wide as the beach Beach looks beautiful Beach - soft sand Sand is dry Sand covers feet Feet walking fast Feet getting wet Wet rain falls Wet is the night Night waters blue Night becomes dawn Dawn by the sea Dawn waves dance Dance of the mermaids Dance with the torrent Torrent turning wild Torrent of breakers Breakers roar Breakers play Play all night Night... Breakers...

Beautiful expressions. Love the way you've presented your poem to look like the waves in the sea. :-D Blitz looks like quite a difficult form to do. I must try and have a go at it myself someday. Your excellent example has a fluidity and your use of words makes for a calming read. Very good.

Dear Joanna, Your poetic journey through the ebb and flow of the night sea is nothing short of mesmerizing. Each line carries the weight of the waves crashing against the shore, the whisper of the wind, and the mystery of the moonlit sky. Your words vividly depict nature's beauty and power, evoking a sense of wonder and awe. Keep weaving your magic with your pen! - Blessings, My Friend, Daniel
