Seaside

Poetry, Romance

The seaThe gentle lap of wavesWash upon boards weathered graySome split or warpedAlong the dockStrung with fenders of plastic, and tiresNear the end, of hempWorn and batteredAnd I wonder when, if ever, all of this was newSalt air and...

  hello dearest Joe this is so beautiful how you envision this lady my face is open and my laughter sweet…I can’t lie it shows on my face so I try to be honest as I can but that can unsettle too…you’re very romantic to be seen as such is so passionate 💕

  You took us there, I swear. It was like watching a scene breathe before you. Emotion-filled atmosphere & the sound of the surf. Incredibly beautiful

  What a great read for me this evening. Very beautifully done, lulling in a good way. Like a sailboat easing along the waves.
  So well done. I love it!

    Ramble without rhyme as the consciousness flows. Glad that you enjoyed the flow of the stream.

    That’s all I need, to know I helped someone escape the mundane, if but for a few moments.
    Thank you for stopping by. 🌼

A Question of Words

If I ask a mind not flesh, not soul,To weave a poem, to make it whole,Is it mine, or borrowed threadA shadow cast, a voice unsaid? If crafted by a silent guide,Whose thoughts arise from circuits wide,Do I claim what...

Another Problem Solved

How can I miss you? When you never go away Water’s wet sky is blue Perpetual victim falls prey Outside in the distance A stranger lies in wait Steeped in persistence Always guarding the gate When did I get wise? Is the proper question As soon as a crow...

  Just reading Honoria’s comment above & I think she’s right. This one might need to be considered for your lyrics list on the album. It has a cadence that moves & the visual is captivating. Worth considering, my friend? 🤔

    Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Anything is on the table, maybe even spoken word. Never say never. The song I’m working on, I literally had to start writing lyrics to it. None of the old words were fitting the vibe. Also, I haven’t tried to write a song for many summers now. I kinda forgot sometimes the music leads the dance. lol. Appreciate you.

  Who decides when it isn’t? Is there a voting process? Or do we just say screw it & flip the status quo? I like the powerful simplicity of this one

  I thought I was you were going in to a Bruce Hornsby song ” That’s just the way it is. Some things will never change. That’s just the way it is. But don’t you believe them”.
  Nice!
