I Walk The shore

I walk along the sandy shore
absorbing serenic splendor
with a bird on my shoulder
really I do

At night I once met a ghost
a misty maiden at the coast
and she and I danced
Oh yes, it's true

In a breeze she came over me
we took to the stirring sea-
waltzed waves of ecstacy-
A sweet moment

All under the moon's rays
cast out of a full phase;
but night loosened embrace
then she went

I swam back in tears
my thoughts full of fears
my heart put to drears
aching and sore

I may never again her see
but still I wait patiently;
'til my soul again is free
I walk the shore

O God above! In every deed shall mingle, love."

'In a breeze she came over me
we took to the stirring sea-
waltzed waves of ecstacy-
A sweet moment'


A sweeter thought, could not be found
Ecstacy falls, in soft surround~

How could this not be true
how could I not belive in you
I was there.......within the mist
dancing ~ swaying......gently kissed
now waiting ~ wanting......hoping to see
you on the beaches ~ waiting for me

~SEA~

I LOVE THIS!

====================
superb imagery in this write of longing and passion
wonderful expression
way cool poetry


If my slight Muse do please these curious days ...
The pain be mine ...
but thine shall be the praise.
