Time And Tide Poems - Poems about Time And Tide

Time and Tide
The tang of salt imbues the mist – a calling I cannot resist. I walk along the rocky shore held spellbound by the ocean’s roar. As darkness falls, the fog rolls in and, from the lighthouse, shapes begin to stalk within the opaque veils like illustrations of its tales. The cloying haze seems to transcend reality, here at land’s end. I see the ghosts of...

In time shadows in an old windy shed are names of sojourners who've passed this way; now my wandering boot does older tread where I passed on a long forgotten day. I see their faces on wall and jetty drinking beer, watching the wind and tide turn, where on horizon across a dark sea ...

“Time and tide wait for no man”, affirm the wise. Everything should be done in the allotted time n’ space. Like waves which wait for none, time will advance. By staying idle, we may never get one more chance! Each one is granted a fixed quantum of time. Without notice, seconds pass with a silent chime. Those who handle time without...

Time and Tide Will Not Wait
Time ticked until the stroke of ten before descending its wrath on men And at that hour it escaped its cage Pendulum chiming with total rage Humans are in chaos as they await time to restart. In its hands, their fate Does this mean heartache will not heal until once more bells ring out in peal? Ongoing wars, a pandemic to...

Time and Tide Waited Not
Tempest fugit and all of that, The blink of an eye, and life is gone; Little things to do cause the days to pass; Future is meditation, work is done. The last learning curve to be at peace, Making room for what once were diversions, Reading, writing, TV, and pleasing food. Accepting, accepting, each new pain With God's Grace....

If I should die,think only this of me That one small corner of the web Nurses all of my poetry My Muse's tide is on the ebb Her waning strength sadly faded No reason now for any rhyme My talents fully spent and jaded No one can hold back marching time So...

Time and Tide, Wait For No Man
Touch and feel the rebirth of her heart A new glow, magnets the stars above Arousing the birth of an energy That wittingly mingles with her long lost faith An enticing yearn for life awakens her soul She has cried many years, she has seen better days There Is no lie in her fire She could jump a rope with feet of...

Time and Tide
I thought that I should never be as old as folks as old as me, for in my youth the time of day moved so much slower on its way. But youth can be a wondrous thing that hides the truth of living’s sting, that birth must surely lead to death from babe’s first cry to final breath. For time flows past at...

Watermarks of the Time and Tide - Third Part
Watermarks of the time and tide! (Third and last part to abide by the word count) ----- With aches and pains felt everywhere in the body called arthralgia and myalgia! We start thinking if only we could go back to our good times in a fit of nostalgia! The best would be to become a baby pampered by parents...

Watermarks of the Time and Tide - First Part
Watermarks of the time and tide! (First part to abide by the word count) --- I was born as an innocent looking baby, as everyone always is! Just a tiny cuddly body with a pure soul, with not much of wiz! Then as a faltering toddler I started my slow and waddling walk! With some more effort at finding words,...

Time and Tide
Standing on the beach looking out at the water, I had a moment of reflection of all that matters. I realized that waves, the rhythm of ebbs and flows, Are very much like the people in our lives. The movement of the water, the relationship with time and tides, Time and tides together making the difference in the strength...
