Silently washed ashore
this precarious log; from

My dog, on you he'll
chew... I hate you.

Who was invited ashore for tea
He took just one sip
Hurried back to his ship

Astounding high fliers
Ace gliders and divers
Artful, very skillful
Amazing large wing spans
Ashore only to breed
Awesome and majestic
A great bird of the sea.

Happy birthday, dear Mary Ann, 
Waves go ashore when tide is high; 
Lovely words written in the sand 
Are witnessed by the sunny sky.

Immigration Crisis

now years later,
walking down those rubble and dirt,
which creak in agony,
i am reminded of that innocent face,
which once washed cold ashore,
on a bloody dreadful day,
when the world stood still.

The yard that courts my heart,
May propose a thought in me;
Envoy to impart:
All the words of destiny;

The ship disembarked:
Be my own amen;
Let each poem ashore,
Anchor strength in statement –

Islands

I cometh through the sand stones of time 
Washed ashore before you were born 
Knowing my voice is silent  
Though determined to find 
The one who prevails 
Through terror reigns 
Set me free 
For you

Gentle Wakes, Violent Waves

You must never disturb a woman
when she is taking her beauty rest 
while floating ashore on gentle wakes
or else she will transform
into a human hurricane
with lots of violent waves
surging right back at you

Asea, Ashore

although the waves violently swirl 
   and splash about, 
      fiercely gnarl 
         and roar,

   their rippling wavelets so gently 
      woo and caress 
         the soothing,
            soft shore.

Premium Member Tsunami

volcano erupts

beachside village in peril --

    monster 'neath the waves


water wall rises

tsunami washes ashore --

     souls float on blue tide

Premium Member God's Tapestry

My footprints painting pictures on  land
While walking barefoot in wet sand.

Admiring the patterns on high
Created by clouds up in the sky.

Picking up the coral and shells
That wash ashore on the ocean swells.

Coastal Ghosts

Coastal ghosts


Out of the foam 
when a mighty wave crashed ashore
came a pair of transparent 
horses
flying mane of course
They were last seen 
galloping 
upland where the mist
was settling for the evening
