"In the frozen depths of the Arctic Ocean lies a strong, silent beauty~a majestic reminder that true splendor often resides in the calmest of realms." Quote by the poet
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Under the quiet, watchful skies,
I'm the Arctic Ocean, frigid~
a queen in a garment of ice.
I adorn the night with brilliant colors,
ribbons of emerald and amethyst~
the aurora borealis, my heavenly crown.
I cradle the narwhals, unicorns of the sea,
their spiraled horns tell tales lost to time
while they dance in my currents, a silent ballet.
My heart, a mysterious sea of secrets old.
Hidden within my deep trenches,
are mammoth bones and vanished Viking ships.
I'm the graveyard of deceased explorers,
their dreams softly buried within my chilly depths.
Polar bears are my knights in this cold land,
walking across my splendorous shoreline
protecting my vulnerable, majestic world.
I am the Arctic Ocean, adaptive and strong~
my icy winds echo of survival
beneath the captivating midnight sun.

“Love is the Supreme Artist Unseen” Poet
with a silent kiss does sperm enter egg
butterfly fondle pollen in morning dew
starling swallow caterpillar askew
with silent kiss does sunbeam caress window sill
spoon dips shallot soup with gentle will
waves ripple shelly shoreline in thrill ~
with a silent kiss does newborn lick nipple
cloud embraces cloud, fluff huffed ripple
bud petal unfurls to air in dare
wrinkled stranded beggar’s knobby hand
smooch offered seeded loaf, prime brand
hands warm curl steering wheel, feel genteel
anchor lands on jewelled ocean floor
with silent kiss does sewing needle pierce
linen white, knife smear butter delight
dolphin fin rouse whale tail, ship returns lipping
the silent kiss but Love in polar need
destined to meet in embosom’s clasp
receiver with giver unmasked grasp

*Dedicated to Poet Demetrios Trifiatis. ( I was led to write this after reading a comment he made on one of my poems)
I had not seen his poem before writing this. Bless him at this time of loss.
There is no reason for such a tragedy to strike
Like a lightning bolt hitting one person in a crowd
The pain, the grief, overcoming one’s inner soul
Acting like a tsunami or then shock of standing still
Numb on an empty shoreline, too much to process
One is hard enough, but why on earth so many?
There’s only one answer that always remains
Turning to the constant everlasting strength in faith
To keep moving forward, believing what is best is ahead
Faith in knowing there will be a spectacular reunion
Living beyond a tragedy, that later will only seem to be
- Like a grain of sand -

Am I the only one who doesn't care it's raining?
That it's cold outside and no one's on the street
When the wind is blowing a hundred miles an hour
And the earth decides to shake its fist at me
When the elements electrocute my senses
And lightning carves the sky with angry streaks
When flying branches shatter picket fences
And thunder gives an awe inspiring speech
When the water that surrounds me churns and vomits
And the shoreline has no choice but to retreat
Not a morsel of my soul is craving shelter
I choke on rain and plant my stubborn feet
This is the fragile life that we inherit
These are the numbered days that mark my place
The Earth can be so damn intimidating
But I'm happy any time it shows its face
Angel of the seas
Dancing in the flame beneath a candles flickered light
Moving between shadows on the floor
My every thought now focused on the beauty I have seen
Standing present on a distant shore
Caressing waves do drench her skin, to shimmer soft and sweet
As walls I find about me steadfast true
With only but this window do I witness every need
This vision that does flood my mind of you
Delicate the grains of sand which capture where you are
Upon the golden wings of whispered seas
While I alas, do fight the ways that keep me ever gone
Now praying as I fall upon my knees
Such beauty on the shoreline with the breezes in your hair
Feel this love which flows upon the wind
There atop a rainbow near a lighthouse proudly stands
Beginnings that I cherish once again
Cast apart these shackles which so tightly hold me down
Bound about my feet so I shan’t flee
Solid is the lock it seems now forged of hardened dreams
Yours is but the love which holds the key
Lift me with your crescent smile as bright as any moon
Place your eyes upon this tear stained face
Take me by the hand and lead me far away from here
Hand in hand along the sand to trace
We shall leave our footprints on the beach that you call home
Rows of two now waiting out the tide
Open up your wings so I may fall into your heart
Lock my love away so deep inside
Show me the enchantment that shall free my lonely soul
Teach on the waves of waters pure
Hold me as I long for you my angel of the seas
Endless as these oceans to endure
Yep, I am in ocean and beach mode tonight. :)
I’ve set sail on the ocean just my savior and me
Not a care in the world, I have everything I need
The stars guide my way and the Lord my path
I’m strong from bow to stern, I’ve completed all the math
My mast is tall and full, my clothes are fresh and clean
I’ve handled all of my business, my love’s been felt and seen
The shorelines getting smaller, I can see my family tree
I still hear their shouts and laughter, I’m as proud as I can be
Their voices now are gone, I’m halfway across the sea
It’s time to break some bread, just Jesus Christ and me
It’s been a lovely voyage, a new shoreline comes in view
I’m hearing familiar voices, I’m not sure what to do
I hear new shouts of laughter as I look to the other side
I’m seeing familiar faces, each smiling big with pride
The welcome wagon’s here, then Jesus takes my hand
I see the light within each face as my toes now touch the sand
Maybe it's better to roam about unnoticed
To do your thing with so much pride
That you forget that some see it as a competition
That where you are in life
Is where you need to be even if you dont make waves just yet
Have you noticed that the shoreline does its work without praise
Its duty without being reminded
Yet for order to remain even the shoreline has an important part to play
I will be like the shoreline; do what is required to the best of my ability
No matter who notice
In the end it is not about being seen
It's about what will speak for you when you cant

The Proposal
Aquaculture From Jumbo to Colossal
We have the best Prawns in the Market
Adagio's Abstract
(the deep dive into Giant Prawn Market)
Secrecy would be the success of this
mission quarry and research
several wished to collaborate
to form an enmity in a industry
that is dominated by a Chinese Market.
This industry's value was over $2.45 billion in
revenue in 2021 , could prove to
be a wealth creator in an area were
once dominated by Oyster and crab harvesting.
The giant freshwater prawn, to be grown in
freshwater pools
and sold to restaurants who
wish the best quality product available.

------------------------------
Needed equipment depends on the type of
aera you are trying to create. Either Indoor
nurseries or large outdoor grow out ponds.
Monitoring equipment, and water management
creates the need for the type of construction
that's needed.Specific equipment make the need of
evaluation necessary to avoid over spending or
under estimating the actual need.
The right name to promote your product help's.
People will sing your praises by giving them something
specal with a logo and product line
that's rememberable. For example the crew had to pick
between Four names.
a. Glorification Brand
B. Ole Barney's famous River Prawns
c.Shorelines Best
D. Adagio's Primo Giant Prawns
They eliminated both Glorification and Shoreline
due to the Prawns were produced in pooles in a barn.
And creating a distorted narrative of a product
can backfire; due to unrealism standards. Misleading people
can sometimes turn them away from you.
But when they looked at Adagio'S Primo Giant Prawn they said
the name was interesting enough, and Primo describe the product superiority
to others due to it's freshness.
I came upon it slowly~
a curve of lantern-lit houses
along the coast,
each leaning toward the sea
as though listening
to the moon’s summer song.
Stone walls breathed warmth,
still holding the day’s heat,
and narrow alleys
wound like soft secrets
between terracotta dreams.
Above me,
the stars burst open~
bright, jubilant,
scattering silver petals
across the velvet sky.
They fell in slow arcs,
fireworks without sound,
celebrating nothing
and everything at once.
The sea answered them.
Its tranquil surface
held the summer moon
like a polished coin,
laying a silver path
straight to the village’s heart.
Along the shoreline
trees and flowers
glowed with iridescent breath,
Blues melted into greens,
pinks into gold.
I walked among them,
feeling the night
open gently around me,
feeling the village
welcome me
as though I had always
been expected.
In that moment,
the world felt wide again~
a place where wonder
still knew how to bloom,
where moonlight
could rewrite the shoreline,
and where a traveler
could stumble upon magic
simply by following
the sound of the sea.
The little ripples on the sea soon stir into larger waves
Like those in the land of the free, soon everyone caves
Approaching on the shoreline of beachgoers so tanned
Thinking everything will be fine with that line in the sand
Now with the rising tide the waves soon begin to crest
No longer being able to abide people just do their best
But then the storm comes in, causing the rest to retreat
In so that line being so thin it is now dredged in defeat
Dark clouds hovering above pushed closer by angry gust
For if it is not God who you love then count on going bust
As on their day it encroaches stealing away all their Light
But even as the storm approaches they don't see its might
So as the first drops now fall still most people don't care
Their whole life missing God why now would one be aware
It may look like just another storm but is certainly different
No, this is not just the norm, but instead, a sign being sent
