Cast Me To The Shells

awake
has no dreams
it rides
the tempts tide
dancing upon
the ocean floor
there is
no place to hide
my feet recognize
the pain
so cast me
to the shells
steps in
salty waves
turns red
to pink pastels

sometimes I wonder what you see when you look out on life...most times I know by your writings

Yes, yes, the ocean is all that... if I must endure the pleasure and the pain,  there is no place I'd rather be.

Thank you Ms. Slick~

(smiles) Oh Helen, this is just beautiful, sweet friend, the ocean is the cradle of life in my mind and no better place depicts the beauty in its absolute than the sea! (kiss on cheek) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is marvelous, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Helen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

I love the way you rotate your point of view without seeming to do so....you are indeed the queen of short lines!

Helen, your writing always fascinates me and you see things that most do not. How I would love to meet you.

Hugs, Marti
