Solitude In The Sea

My heart yearns for something that is bigger than me and my spirit keeps searching for it, it is not buried in the sand by the sea but it is somewhere beyond hills waiting for me. The sun is shining all over it and the waves are riding upon it, and here I stand in this secluded space gazing at it mounting in the sky and the mission finally takes off and hope is revived. Take me to the place where I can see your face, Take me to the place where I can be in solitude with thee, the rumble and tumble in the city have drained my spiritual energy, sometimes I feel burnt out and there is no one around to replenish my burning soul, so I walk about the yard and scrape up the garbage from the side until my soul finds meaning. I am not a country girl but I adore the whole wide world, I like to travel to the country side to make my spirit come alive, and visit the old Mac Donald farm were my older siblings were born and absorb the smell of country kitchen aroma that spreads in the distance Take me to the place to walk on grass lands that run from long distance and breathe fresh air from the atmosphere; I can’t imagine this feeling that has risen in my feet setting my heart in motion to accommodate, the big wide ocean, we will talk about the weather and the agenda for tomorrow, will you come and join me to spread joy over there? I can see the glittering lights from the light house and the waves bashing against the rock with a message in a bottle that was sent from heaven and washed upon the shore. I know that this handwriting is from you, and you talk of making my dreams come through, and your faint whisper in the dark arouse my consciousness and propel me out of the dark, Oh how my heart yearns for something that is bigger than me to fill the empty spaces around me. Take me to the place where I can feel the chill And frolic in the grass and chase butterflies on the hill, I want to drench myself in nature until I cross over. It is solace that I seek to be with the people I can feel, it’s like traveling for a thousand miles and falling in love for the first time and you get a strange mixed feel and you start to wonder if the other person is feeling the same thing, and then your mind start to travel and your spirit starts to soar Take me to the place where I can mingle with the animals and feed them with my hands to bring abundance on the land, Take me to the place that will shower me with love and mesmerize my heart with the bliss from above, take me to the place where I can nurture your love, the animals will tender to it and the universe will endorse it. I will spend a week in that place before I retreat to reality beneath the skies and negotiate with the human race.

Dear Christine, your poem transports my soul to realms of natural splendor and spiritual longing. The sea, hills, lighthouses, and open fields awaken the senses. I loved how you deftly captured the human yearning for peace, connection with the divine, and immersion in nature's blissful embrace. Your poem just overflows with insight and wonder at the universe's grandeur. An uplifting, beautifully rendered ode to finding one's place in the cosmos. Breathtaking! - Blessings, My Friend, Daniel
