NONE LEAVE FOOTPRINTS

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pathways formed on surging swells

Journeys over billowing whitecap daffodils

 

Caravans with alabaster tapestries

Rites of passaging for the bourgeoisie

 

Tides and currents’ heaving breasts

Questing in nymph and siren-seeded crests

 

Sail on, sailor, and wander ‘cross the deep

Endless your song and everlasting your sleep

 

Migrating ventures for paupers and kings

In brine and breakers resplendent wanderings

 

A titan’s echoed haunting screams

Oceaning ripples of the odyssey’s dreams

 

None leave footprints on the waves

And no stones just foam to mark the graves…

Can I get a whoop whoop! Wow, I am always inspired and filled when I read your writing. This is just another in a long line of tremendous epiphanies written with such a touch. Great work my friend. Happy Friday. Sunday Bloody Sunday......enjoy the U2.

Ah so beautiful I loved these

Endless your song and everlasting your sleep

What a wonderful poem, totally mystifying!
I really enjoyed reading it. I especially loved the last two lines.

"None leave footprints on the waves
And no stones just foam to mark the graves…"
