Reflections

~ it has been a windy winter in Southern California ~

photograph compliments of myopera

 

 

~~~

The sun has set on another year

of jeweled fantasies and sandcastle fairytales

and ocean breezes scented with calla lilies

dancing under cotton candy clouds, colored with hope…

 

While I sailed away on moonbeam kissed waves and poetic rhymes that romanced my dreams and etched my heart…this tender tide

 

leaving a smile…

 

perhaps a bit wistful,

but a smile nevertheless

as I soar with the seabirds

on winds of change

 

I wonder…

 

If given the chance

could it all stay the same?

 

But I would not ask

for the sun has set on another year

Beautiful photo and amazing poetry.
"While I sailed away on moonbeam kissed waves and poetic rhymes that romanced my dreams and etched my heart…this tender tide"
My favorite kind of poetry. Ocean, hope and wishes. No weakness in the excellent poetry.
