Waves on the shore.

Baker

 

Waves on the shore.

 

I see them crest.

 

I see them break.

 

I want them to pull me in.

 

Wash me away.

 

 

Sandcastles like monuments.

 

Once standing tall.

 

Suddenly washed away.

 

Like nothing was there all along.

 

 

Listening to the ocean.

 

I hear the song.

 

I feel a stillness.

 

I’m at peace only for this moment.

 

 

Warm sand below me.

 

Sun kisses my face.

 

Distant thunder cracks.

 

Nothing stays the same.

      A poem on change and so true it is. Change is the only constant and so it is with all things. Great metaphor with the sand castle. A poem nicely written.

      A lovely write, change is the only thing we know is going to happen except death, and we need to learn to adapt to it, nicely expressed and written
