Rewrite

Free

I stand upon a lonely beach,
Where lonely waters lap and leach
And pave the sands to even lie,
Under a magic azure sky.

I gaze in silence measuring far
See sand and waters meet the stars
And ride this phantom of a seem
Into a fantasy of dream.

I nullify my lonely dwell
Silence the dismal of my hell
I sooth the spirits of my sigh
Within a magic azure sky.

Sailing into an ecstasy
Away from earthly agony.
Thrown overboard the ennui,
For just a moment to be free.

It's here within my brood of crime
I braille into the thermal clime
And I am for a moment free
And gone is all the ennui.

I'm solace, shield, heart and core
Where judge and judging is no more.
I am the clouds on the run
I and nature are as one.

I am a cipher in the sun.

Sy,  This poem is the epitome of freedom.  I know I certainly would like to find the place where:

"judge and judging is no more"

That sums it all up in one line I think.

Great work.

You have some particular words that you use with regularity.
I for one, enjoy seeing them woven throughout....

Thank you for this....

Michael,
A pat on the back from you has made my day.
Thank you my friend.

Sunshine,
What you say is true I do have favorite words
just like people. *L*

Tradewind,
I thank you much.

since I have yet to ever see a beach or ocean in person, I must live vicariously thru those that have...
I am sure it is a lesson in humilty and respect for nature as well as a place to find inner peace as you speak of here in your rhyme divine.
Next time you go for your walks of solace on a beach of understand...
bring me back some sands of time  
*ww* me







It's such a clever innocence with which you show myself to me
As if you know how it feels to never be who you wanted to be

JM,
The sands of time are in your eyes
And that to me is no suprise.
Believe me sweet you are a part
Just look again within your heart.

I am there with you ... feel me take your hand
minds entwined ... as we walk your beaches of understand
We become one with the ocean ... baptized in your rhyme
Let your wisdom wash over me ... together we'll touch infinite sands of time

JM,
Well there goes Randy again. He's just been impossible lately. Your pictures are gorgious
and your poetry heart melting.
I wish I would I wish I could
Wish this wish a wish that should.
But since I can't I rave and rant
and send Randy for things I can't.
Thank you love. Winkiewinkie
