Shore of the Sea

Shore of the Sea

What do you see on the shore of the sea
is it faces of those who are gone?
Or just the grey skies and powerful lies
and the terrible deeds that were done

What do you hear on the shore of the sea
memories of injustice and wrongs?
Carried away by the spume and the spray
now just echoes of their final song

I stand at the shore of the grey heaving sea
hearing the words of the past
amongst the cold waves I can see distant graves
of the ones who stayed true to the last

Amazing!

The sea always grasps at eternity, and at the same time those voices from the past that we cherish or need to forget..The greyness of waves bordering on green blue, the swift flight of gulls against the sheltering sky, the poetry of the visible and the insvisible..I could feel that in your lines.Thank you for sharing.
