Sounds of an Ocean Shore

by Gregory W Golden   Oct 21, 2006


The roar and thunder from
ocean waves crashing
back and forth against
black sandy shores
sounds like a symphony of
cymbals and kettledrums,
as the tide rolls in…

Seagulls bobbing up and
down upon crested
waves waiting to get
uplifted by a gusty wind…

Catching breath, they pause
to nibble on tasty schools
of fish dancing near the
surface edge…

Nocturnal sea creatures
yarn, stretch, and adorn
themselves with rocks and
seashells…

I am dreaming…

as the ocean kisses the sky I sit in complete comfort
Of the quiet and beauty in the midst…

I bask…

At the stroke of midnight,
the waves parade in a moonlit
dance ritual, making hypnotic
sounds off of the ocean’s shore

I am captivated, I am caught up…

The roar and thunder from the
Oceans waves crashing
Back and forth against
black sandy shores…

Sooths me.

    Monika,

    Thank you for the positive feedback.

    I get a lot of ideas and I have to write them down quickly to print before I forget.
    There are so many possible when we write.

    I am so happy you enjoyed reading my poem, I created something and established communication with another
    human being. It makes me feel great inside to know this!

    The sound of an ocean shore provides something magic for everyone!

    All we have to do is get the right combination of words together to express our inner thoughts.

    For some reason, I have this amazing ability to create many title, but I cannot write it down fast enough!

    So, keep sharing.

    Please read some more of my other poetry and comment. Tell a friend too!

    Communication is the key!
