With gentle tremor
the wind whispers
‘trees live’
I hear their music through
rustling leaves.
Sea laps the shore
with endless sweet kisses
on high tides of blessings
and gratitudes.
Birds sing their own song
on wings of joy
and, in freedom of flight.
With bluest of skies
clouds share their air
and dance upon the earth
as they move in
shifting shadows
becoming
what my mind wishes
them to be.
Each blade of grass
each tiny tear that falls
is as important
as you and I
Once we have heard
the beat of the world.

I used to live in the house whose deck you can just make out the corner of, on the right of the pic. Loved this river. Water is my life’s blood.

What a beautiful plce to have lived and how well you describe it in your poem.
This is such a lovely poem. I’m so glad you wrote it! Thank you!
This is beautiful. It makes me see why love poetry to begin with.
Love the ode to nature. : )
I really love this one. My favourite line is, “Sea laps the shore with endless sweet kisses.” That perfectly describes the rhythm of the waves as they meet the shore.
Well done poem.

Sea laps the shore

I so love this poem, and the photo – and you LIVED there! Water is my life’s blood too, especially the ocean, which I keen for endlessly……..luckily the Island is covered with lakes and rivers and creeks and falls and lagoons and ponds and every manner of watery bliss. When I miss the ocean too much, I walk by the river. Loved your poem!
This is beautiful! One of my favorites today!
