Best Sc Poems
For some time a young man had not seen his lover.
He made haste to join her soon as time allowed.
Riding on horseback he sped home to see her.
Ride he did from Georgetown to Pawleys,
Riding to her in lower South Carolina.
Eager to see her he acted fool hardy,
by marshland and swamp instead of by road.
The short cut he took was riddled with quicksand.
Both he and the horse were lost and ne’er found.
The young girl declared she would never again love.
Time needed to heal, she began to forlornly
walk and remember the young man she once knew.
Mourning her lover she walked every day.
On one such excursion, she saw a young man.
Dressed in gray approach at a distance.
When he drew near she recognized her beau.
She knew he had died but now lives again?
A touch to her lips brought her to silence.
“Please leave immediately, there is great danger”
Without saying more he vanished away.
Finding her parents she told them the story
They fled to the mainland making great haste.
The hurricane that night was fierce and deadly.
Lives were lost and many homes destroyed.
Save their’s and a neighbors whom also was warned.
No one can explain the subsequent sightings.
Foretelling the safety of those whom are warned.
Of their lives and belonging which stayed safe
in the wake of a terrible, terrible storm.
But the young girl knew that which they didn’t.
Deep cold my bones vex,
are we being hit by a
new polar vortex?
A beautiful attraction
Like the coral reef
A beautiful fall
Like the autumn leaf
Beautiful words
A beautiful sound
A great experience
All around
A palm tree
An ocean crashing
The hot summer sun
Summer bashing
Or what about winter
Snow upon the ground
There is only one place
All of this can be found
Rivers flowing
Across the rocks it streams
A wish upon a star
Palmetto dreams
Mountains in the distance
A scene of a sight
The sun in the trees
A beautiful light
All four seasons
Can be found here
South Carolina
A place I hold dear
Waves call out in song,
Sea breeze teases sunlit hair—
Sands of time await.
Flip-flops mark our path to peace,
Horizon holds dreams aloft.
Beneath the sunset,
tall sweet grass sways silently,
Charleston Bay sighs.
Gold kisses green at day's end,
gentle waves of amber light.
