Down by the sea |

We met down by the sea Was a warm sunny day Cradled in your arms I was Upon the sand we lay ~~~ You held me closely to you Whispered sweet nothings in my ear The waves rolled in One by one The sunlight slowly disappeared ~~~ The moon softly crept our way As we still laid upon the sand Our bodies enveloped as one We searched the skies expance ~~~ We wished upon a star that night Our wish was to come true My wish was the same as yours To spend my life with you ~~~ To this day we still meet by the sea Wrap ourselves in our own little world Our bodies enveloped as one Once again In your loving arms I'm curled ~~~ Love is the life of the soul... It is the harmony of the universe |

Tracie, this is really lovely, it's beautifully written, and so full of tenderness. I too miss the sound of the sea, and I can't think of a better place to be than wrapped in love, with the waves softly shushing before you and the warm sun overhead. Mind you with this being England, you'd probably need to be wrapped in a duvet, and hold an umberella over your head. But I still miss it, whatever the weather. Oh and I really love this poem. Take care Marsha All I need now is the candy floss and someone selling fish and chips and I'll feel right at home!! |

Tracie~ Hi there! This was stunning my friend. Loved it!! I can almost see the ocean caressing the sand in my mind . . . *sigh*. Great writing!! Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
