Like The Waves From The Shore ~Marge Tindal~ I must now ebb The time has come to sail my oceans Rolling away from you like the waves from the shore rippling out to the vastness of the sea that beckons my ship of folly I'll not ask you to stand the night vigil on the shoreline of memory You are here on the beaches of my memory even though I drift the tides If you should look into a starlit night and see a reflection of me know only that I will one day come crashing again to the shore swept homeward by the pull of the tide and you ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

One of the most romantic poems I have read. Truly enchanting I used to be schizophrenic, but we're ok now so don't make me mad cause I'm running out of places to hide the bodies......LOL |

Marge, I admire the means by which you incorporate the elements of nature into so much of your work, and this poem is (naturally!) no exception. Beautifully rendered and lovely to the "touch." Claire |

Kamla- Thanks sweetie. You will never be 'set adrift' unless there's a 'hunk' to hold onto. Love you, little one. ~*Marge(y)*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

~Marge~ Beautiful and romantic - I was captivated! For some reason, I feel like listening to "Ebb Tide" by the Righteous Brothers, your words always inspire me to write or remind me of songs and memories. That's a sign of a great poet! Take care, Melissa Honeybee The beauty of poetry gives my soul wings to fly free within dreams |
