Notes About The Poem

contest Just Because sponsor John Lawless

Solitude on the Seashore

A soothing red sun bows to the moonlight
as time once again takes my soul beyond
to steal me away from Ambered twilight
and mesmerize emotions to respond 

My heart becomes married to the vast shore
while walking the sands of the untamed sea
beneath the moon and starlight, I adore
I will find a beautiful serenity

Alone yet not, as the sea is awake
with voices from waves heard in the night
during this intimate journey, I take
my soul becomes peaceful and will take flight

To rest in a universe just as wide
where my footprints left will fade with the tide

Wow dear Frederick this really resonates with me on so many levels, as i am also an islander to start with and because of the emotions youv expressed here, such as “ Alone yet not, as the sea is awake with voices from waves heard in the night” just hits home! The sea is awakr singing for us reminding us like the waves that keep crashing…highs and lows of tides, time and all that which weigh us down too will find a serene shore! How moving and soul stirring! Sending you light always
