5374 Pensacola Whispers 04 May 2006 If I pause again will you break my heart Of those Pensacola days and the panhandle you behold As if your home was across a county and a gulf breeze whispering on the wind A voice speaking in waves of kind the frequency attuned to your heart No body to stand those jealous winters for summer was your freedom to seek As far off Alabama did wait this road to Georgia, accounting Eleven and ‘Ten’ to escape Every number, a number to remember over the silence of blood renewed Your smile, you grace, no pause to truth another day to dream in childhood At 448 metres (1471 feet) long, the Pensacola Beach Gulf Fishing Pier in Florida, USA, is the longest pier on the Gulf of Mexico. Where many kinds of marine life from dolphins, manatees, brown and cow rays, different types of sharks, crabs. In addition, to marine birds are found. Along with sunsets to awestruck any visitor and local alike. Or to dine on sandwiches, hot-dogs, nachos, cold drinks, snacks. Seated at several tables shaded with umbrellas for your comfort while you eat at the Pensacola Beach Pier diner. © 2006 Christopher W Herbert (a New Zealand Poet) a poet who cares |

Enjoyed this poem of the town where I grew up!! I have always loved the beach. It has been known to have the whitest beaches in the world. Ivan tried to tear it up, but it's coming back. Hugs, Ethel |

Ethel you might just have made my day, over two poem I recently composed, that I used Pensacola in the title. I had considered not sharing them on this site, because 90% of my recent poems here have zero comments next to them Perhaps I will add another after all I know my writing is good, even if no one on PIP tells me that much if I am right or not a poet who cares |

When you can find in your heart those words that speak, you also find the inner-voice that whispers them back to you Of a times when the spirit truly runs from within (like I stopped by here, and spontaneity took my hand and led to what comes next) 5377 Dixie at Rest 06 May 2006 To find heart, and gather soul an understanding to endure Her love, her empathy the way as if virginity pure The softness of a hand her gentle touch Beauty never taken in ways for granted The foundation of friendship even be this new to taste Running forth, a heart voices calling, was it haste Unable to see her, hidden a cage, bars to sweet breath Knowing her, her solemn giving to dream a dream and be at rest © 2006 Christopher W Herbert (a New Zealand Poet) a poet who cares passing shadows - may I ask how you did that, how your dropped in on the page above, while I was composing these words at the exact same time you were there. All unknown but in spirit to me |
