Best Ebb Poems

The hungry mouth of misery swallowed me.
In sorrow I walked the edge of a cerulean sea.
Along its shoreline, my wistful eyes have wept.
Tears fell on ebb tide, and away they were swept.

Once my heart held deep within, a joyous glow,
then plunged into darkness, a sad...

Since a small child, I have been one with Earth,
Green winding tendrils have captured my very heart;
I would follow my father with innocent mirth,
A love for nature and earth was my start.

And into the deep, earthy green we would journey,
I still hike forests and feel...

Reflections across the water draws Gracious 
on one pathway of light shimmering crystals speak 

In a frozen state of mind held breathless 
where listening to the ocean waves crawling kiss 

Capturing the seas of imagination as the sun begins setting
crowned by the clouds as she...

Blessings from God granted with love and grace
forever grateful whatever we face.

As one is trapped into the Whole Heart Web
self and soul in a ceaseless flow and ebb.

Beauty and beast in fairy tales have peace
tender and tough feelings, no life of ease.

As rocks, into the...

EBB    TIDE


We’d had an angry tearful spat
Don’t remember over what:
Stormed out of house down to beach.                    
Needed to clear my mind
For a few...

How vast and pervasive is the Moon?
Hugeness hints there stand two
Orbs and a turbulent stream
Simply like the dawning sun
All over the half-moon horizon.

On the shore of credulity
The froth shed detritus and sea salt
Carving a path into level sand
Slicing the weft out of silk
By cutting across...

Thoughts roll around inside my head
forever churning and turning
like a compost pile for a garden's spread


I miss so many things about writing
those things now long gone
part of my history


Silly lyrics that express a form of emotion
when did this carousel stop turning
and who ate all the...

Whipped
by the
raging wind,
white horses ride
the
tide
until 
exhausted-
die upon the
shore

Inspired by Winslow Homer's paintings of the American seaboard at Maine...

Glittering aqua
Deep hues, light twinkle, shimmer

As I walk along the sandy shore
And watch the waves go to and fro
 To  then return and go no more
Yet come again and ebb and flow
  The timeless rhythm of the sea
   Always will amaze me

That  rivers  always...

As
A
Roller
Coaster that
Thrills with amusement
Daily life presents ebb and flow
That peak at the highest point and then hit a plateau
Until the sequence of life episodes fall into place, regaining the composure

The sun rises and sets 
tides come in and out
as we look at the past.

Life spins around fast
as we gaze into the past
future and present.
See in amazement 
of what has come to light
from our dedication set.

Seasons come and go quickly
as life's change so quickly
from words...

Ebb, flow, ebb, flow, ebb
Relaxation, silence with
Romance, sunrise

The ice floes will not return and he will never leave.
