AT PEACE Lights reflecting on the water Way out across the bay As darkness of night is ending Another sunny day. They flicker as the gentle breeze Blows seaward from the land Just the way Old Mother Nature Had this whole day all planned. The gulls are asleep and quiet The fish will jump all night As I look across the water It's such a lovely sight. Boats gently rocking at the dock Of every shape and size They're lighted by a slice of moon And stars up in the sky. A solitude and peacefulness Now settles over me. It tells me that I've come back home I've come back to the sea. Del "Abe" Jones Mankind's greatest accomplishment is not the revolution of technology, it is the evolution of creativity. |

nice 'write!' I'm especially fond of the ending: "A solitude and peacefulness Now settles over me. It tells me that I've come back home I've come back to the sea." applause! |
