I wrote this poem a few months ago at the end of summer…..
As the world
Unfolds and bursts
Where seams
Never existed
I crawl to the ocean
In the darkness
Leaving it all behind
Summer does not
Seem to want an end
If only other things
Would end as well
Clear skies echo
The Ocean quiet
Our windless Halcyon
I lie in bed
Exhausted yet
Today I contributed
My life’s tapestry
Is richer in this dark hour
As I watch sea and sky
Wow..
Powerful words. A man of hidden talents.
Keep on writing Basil 😊
