there

dusk arising

 

 

  there

         i found a place
         where the dunes
         fall to the beach
         and watched
         afternoon turn
         as families strayed
         homeward
    
 there.      
         to think
         and feel.

                   reflect
                   and cry.


         to finally
         accept.

                   there is
                   no why.

    Why? - the most unanswered question that exists. I wonder why?

    firstly, I admire the creativity
    of your aesthetically pleasing layout
    especially as it adds
    a symbolic meaning
    to your poetry's choice wording,
    and then, I just love the wordplay
    in your lines:
    ' i found a place
    where the dunes
    fall to the beach'..
    that whole thing, where
    both are made of sand
    and yet
    by the perspective we're granted
    one, is aligned with that feeling
    of a seaside escape;
    while the other
    unless confronted, shall-ever remain
    a mountainous obstacle
    in our minds...
    (really clever
    and wonderfully weaved
    showcasing
    your poetic creativity, at its subtle Best
    thanks for sharing Dusk)

    Got to be one of your best and has to be one of my favourities. Great read my dear poet-friend.

    The words laid beautifully in context
    Adorn the eyes that you lay
    I wish I could find the place that you found
    It’s a place worth to stay
    Well crafted dear poet

    Good write Dusk.
    Now for me next poem - 'Here'! About when I call Fido - 'Here, boy!'
    I might do a series - Who, What, Where, everywhere, When, Why,...... heehee
