Within Us

"within us"

like beautiful music lifting minds and souls
you call with open senses to your universe
a cosmos removed yet reasonably near
melodies play while under such spells

mere touches of golden sands restore skin
sounds of crashing waves open ears to hear
sights of the far and wide free eyes to see
totally mesmerizing all known to restore

somewhere between the sun and blue skies
you leave mortals whole and hypnotized
only once and you remain in our cores
somewhere within us you live forevermore

Good Morning Deb - Hi. Thank you very much. So nice to see you and your beautiful and gracious review and commentary. I so like your comments because somehow I am one with the ocean and beaches. I love her world and existence and have since I was a young child. Thank you again. Have a beautiful day and weekend. Enjoy poetry and poetrysoup.

The sky, the sun and the sea with its sand - your favorite subjects. A lively poem that is so melodious. Blessings.

Thank you very much Victor. Hello. Yes, I love the ocean and always will down to the golden sands (smile). I could just sit there all day and do nothing but look out and be mesmerized within her world and mine too (another smile). Have a beautiful and peaceful night. Please remain safe. Blessings always.

Lisa, is alive, Lisa is Alive and well, shalom, and hallelujah. Again, your poems cover "so much ground and space," it amazes me. I keep thinking ... "she's Italian-American, but writes like a Native of England." so many interpretations you offer in every stanza, sometimes each line. You always inspire me with "sky," "waves," "sand," and "WATCHING" sky watcher

Oh my goodness - Anil Anil Anil. You have me smiling. Thank you for that. Truly. It is worth more than any medication or doctor. I am always honored by your words and comments. Never do I take you or them for granted. Yes I am Italian (smile) but no I am not for England although a wonderful place and location. I am touched by your words and intake on my entry. I love the sea and have since I was a young child. The ocean and beaches live within my soul. If I had my way I would sit on the sand and just stare out for hours on end... (smile) Thank you for making this a wonderful morning and day. May all your devices be safe and up and running for when you need them and vice versa. Hugs and Blessings to you Anil. Namaste Namaste Namaste.
