Jenna Logan Poet Rhyme

Waves Played a Symphony

Dawn lit the horizon with soft golden light
as the sun swept the land with warm fingers.
I basked in the topaz gem's fire, burning bright.
It was the kind of morning when one lingers
on shore, watching waves playing over the sea
flowing with rhythmic cadence of a symphony.

Edward Ibeh August 4, 2022 at 12:57 PM Gorgeous poetry! Thoroughly enjoyed this one, Jenna:-) Best of luck in the contest! Jenna Logan August 5, 2022 at 3:48 AM Hi Edward and thank you for the well wishes. I'm glad you enjoyed this one.

Terrell Martin August 1, 2022 at 8:20 AM Reminds me of back home - growing up in Tampa/St. Pete Florida but now I'm inland in southern Louisiana, terribly missing the beaches and ocean water you so eloquently describe (or allude to). Write on, Terry Jenna Logan August 1, 2022 at 12:43 PM At least you don't have to worry about swimming with sharks. Thank you.

John Watt July 28, 2022 at 10:35 AM I do so love to linger at the shore, absorbing all the sensory pleasures of creation, and no better time than when the sun bathes the sky in color (though here on the west coast, that happens at sunset). Love your imagery, Jenna, and especially how you end with a symphonic finale ~ John Jenna Logan July 30, 2022 at 1:08 PM There are so many things to hold one's interest there. I've become more of a sunrise person than sunset. I enjoy the 'quietude' of predawn when it seems everyone in the world is asleep except me and the songbirds. Thank you for your words of encouragement, John.

Linda Alice Fowler July 27, 2022 at 6:45 PM I feel as though I'm there, basking and swaying with the symphony. Very nice Jenna! Linda Jenna Logan July 30, 2022 at 1:06 PM Ahh such is the reward for a poet... being able to put a reader into the scene. Thanks a lot, Linda.

Bill Baker July 26, 2022 at 1:45 PM Great imagery and flow (no pun intended). Thanks for the calming poem, Jenna Have a great week! Bill Jenna Logan July 30, 2022 at 1:05 PM Thank you very much, Bill.

Steven Young July 26, 2022 at 11:06 AM mmm... "the sun swept the land with warm fingers" that's some imagery I can get into. Jenna Logan July 26, 2022 at 12:15 PM Hi, Steven. Thanks for your thoughts and the visit to my poetry.

Mark Koplin July 25, 2022 at 8:20 PM Spot on Jenna, beautiful! Jenna Logan July 26, 2022 at 12:14 PM Hey there, Mark. Thanks so much. Good to see you!

Frederic Parker July 25, 2022 at 6:15 PM I live close to the sea, you have captured it well with your poetry, dear poet...and yes the sunsets look like the picture you posted, in fact, my avatar was taken from down the street Jenna Logan July 26, 2022 at 12:14 PM Frederic, your avatar is stunning! I'm envious of the sunsets and sunrises you must see every day. Thank you for such kind remarks.

John Lawless July 25, 2022 at 3:39 PM this is quite a "bite" and leaves me picking up the crumbs on my fingertips to savor it completely....wonderful imager Jenna Jenna Logan July 25, 2022 at 5:08 PM I'm pleased that you savored these lines, John. Thank you for liking it.

L Milton Hankins July 25, 2022 at 11:37 AM Exquisite, Jenna. You have captured perfectly the lure of the sea. Very nice writing. Jenna Logan July 25, 2022 at 5:08 PM My thanks for such wonderful remarks, Milt.

Tom Cunningham July 25, 2022 at 11:17 AM A very soothing verse Jenna, nothing more therapeutic than watching and listening to the waves. Good luck in the contest. Tom Jenna Logan July 25, 2022 at 11:22 AM Not living near the sea, it's a bit hard for me to do, but there are instrumentals of waves lapping the shore. If I close my eyes I can picture the scene, like the one shown here. It's one of those tranquil places of escape. Thanks for finding this one soothing.
