~I'm on Seashore~
I find myself
On the beach of life
Life is calling me
To take each step of it
So slow as it comes
It falls, incidents
Just like my veil
On my shoulder, settling softly
I have to carry it through
Wind whistles, airy tunes
Through this beach of life
Fiddles every hair of existence
With all this, thoughts are drifting
And here I am
Watching my waves
Taking turns to end
I inhale, beauty and sores
Of what life has touched
The wind continues to blow
The waves trails back and fro
Of whatever life stores

Ahhh Nasra. The pain is bad, but I am going into surgery soon and hopefully this will releive some of it. Thank you so much for your support and for being the best sister in the world. I so enjoyed your story on Elieshi, she is amazing.
I got Don's and I am almost finsihed with it. It has some amazing "for real" poetry, that speaks to the heart and soul of us all. It's very inspiring and I have been blessed by it.
I will be of line for awhile, but please keep me in your prayers and send some good healing thoughts my way.
Much love, respect, and honor ..

what a treat to come back to nasra!
i loved this poem and i like the way it echoes with my life.
Impressive to the eyes--seashore. Reminds me of a phrase from "Psalm of Life" by Longfellow:
"Lives of great men all remind us
we can live a life sublime
and ,departing, leave behind us
footprints on the sands of time"
Thanks for reminding me of that, and for the visit.
Thank you Nasra!
Marvellous poem!
Thank you!
And thank you for your recomments. I have a hard and busy time now, but I'll be back later evening.
Thanks for the trip to the beach, and so thoughtful of you to highlight the books.
Your writing is just as lovely as ever. I hope you are keeping well, best wishes!
Excellent, lyrical, haunting, the song remains even after the tide has migrated into the horizon, reminding us there is always more beyond, I enjoyed my time here
