Shores Poem by Deborah Cromer
Shores
I love to hear the ocean's wave
It is a sound I often crave
The cry of a lonely seagull above the shore
It is a sound I need even more
Feeling the sand between my toes
A sensation almost everyone knows
The lull of the ocean's motion
A restful peace, a relaxing notion
Drifting back and forth, to and fro
This is a great sound to know
Sometimes I could easily fall asleep
Holding this close for me to always keep
I could stay here a long time, even forever
Living this way and leaving never
The shells that line themselves along the beach
They can be held, they are within reach
Shells that seem to wait for a new place to go
Their next destination, they never know
These shells that tides shift endlessly around
Without care they travel to distant ground
I really like this one and I love the mystery at the end of the poem.10+

Last tiem when I read it, i saw a different picture, this time I see a greater message..I see life in shells, just like human beings that are within reach and can be held and embraced.........then the shells kissed by the oceans' waves, travelling places with the tidal waves, just as the human beings....carried away to different destinies........... wow is the word for the poem...............and wwwwwwwwwwwwwwooooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwww is the word for the poet....
