Best Atlantic Poems
AtlanticAtlantic
Standing at the oceans edge
I'm braced against the tide.
Letting loose of memories
once held so deep inside.
I hear the echo calling me
just like a long lost friend.
From times of joy and sadness
that's carried in the wind.
Like thunder is the mighty sound
of waves against the beach.
Finding dreams...

The Great Atlantic DawnThe Great Atlantic Dawn
Eastern clouds lie golden in the morning.
Their wealth is the great Atlantic’s dawning.
The risen sun will kiss horizon’s shore,
and on to southern towns to touch much more.
The joy of ocean’s ageless as blue skies,
a power body stretched before our eyes.
How great the...

The Slave's Tale: Across the Atlantic, 1793Exracted from Gerald Nforche's Epic, The Slave's Tale
-Across the Atlantic, 1793-
We cry out cursing to our very gods
Whilst mokala and plotters lead us in lots.
And slaves we have become, slaves we are groomed
And setting in the milken sky, is the moon.

Here is a boardwalk and a sandy beach.

February Fight In the North AtlanticFEBRUARY FIGHT IN THE NORTH ATLANTIC
Turning home with her hold half full,
Wind picks up - raging, all the more
Fierce in its intent to smash her hull
And plunge her deep to the seafloor.
Murderous mountains of watery salt
Filled with cold hatred inside
In...

Wild Atlantic WayWild Atlantic Way
The sea, slowly surging, crashing, claiming;
Waves endlessly corroding, consuming;
Rocks deeply wrinkling and age defacing;
Seaweed lashing as in a gale swirling.
The sky steaming, magically misting;
Demons forming, twisting, disappearing.
The wind wailing, dementing, high pitching.
Gritty greys powdering, sunlight blotting.
The land shouldering, cringing, succumbing;
The shore crumbling, earth...

Far Across the AtlanticFrom dusk till dawn, the fields, they toiled
Enduring lashes from the overseer's whip.
Grimacing as the sun on them, boiled
The pain, too deep for them to even weep.
Heavy iron shackles impeded their footsteps
Hot iron on bare skin branded them as property
And while many suffered from broken...

North Atlantic Ocean ValentineVALENTINE'S DAY WISH
From off the sea, a night wind cold,
reminding me of growing old,
each joint in pain, each pain held dear,
lest in the end, I die from here,
but die we must, or so I'm told.
Out of the coming of the dawn,
tomorrow's hope, life's going on,
my...

Lyric
Sand BarSand Bar
"Your focus determines your reality." —Qui-Gon Jinn
Witnessing an
amazing low-tide
phenomenon,
as if a walkway to
a parallel world
has suddenly appeared,
extending one-half mile
from East Beach
out to sea
People are slowly
gathering, walking, stopping,
stooping, staring in silence,
speaking softly—
I'm as eager
as Simon Peter
to join them, yet
somewhat afraid of
walking where
there has been
only seawater
minutes...
