Ocean Mine

Contributed by dvtpdw on Tuesday, 10th January 2012 @ 05:55:51 PM in AEST
Topic: MiscPoems

I'm a Florida girl, born and bred
Hear the sound of waves in my head
Barefoot, stickers, hot summer days
Sweat, beaches, as nice as they say

Hours spent sitting on the beach
Watching sea turtles lay eggs, a treat
Books to read, body toasted red
Lazy, bored, not much more to be said

Married a snowbird, flew to cold winter days
Watch the weather change into many plays
Not having my beach used to make me fret
But my life north brings me no regrets

Years have come and gone since then
Memories fade, still can remember when
Striding along the shore, wasting time
Picking up seashells, time's natural rewind

Staring out at the blue ocean water
It gave me courage I wouldn't falter
Time upon time was mine for the taking
Love, life would never be forsaken

The ocean will hear all of your secrets
Will remember your deepest regrets
Music created by waves is soul mending
Time with no measure on sand never ending

There is truth knowing home is within
Start out slowly, never sure where to begin
Going through the days, checking each spot
Finally, you'll always find the one sought

Like the waves that ebb with each tide
Life is bigger than the ocean wide
No end to what you can achieve
Be sure love and hope is what you leave

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
