The Lighthouse Of Tranquility. Poem by Twilight Whispers

The Lighthouse Of Tranquility.



The water lapped gently upon the tiny shore,
Swishing and swaying, quieter than before.
I sat on the stones with my feet in the sea,
Dipping my toes in the freshness of glee.
I breathed in deeply and welcomed the breeze,
As the sand blew gently from my arms to my knees,
And all irrationality blew away with the wind,
When suddenly I felt the desire to sing.
So sing I did, loud and clear,
Melodies from my heart for all to hear.
I love you, I sang, I love you forever,
How could you forget the times we spent together?
But after all, it was a happy song,
So my sadness didn't like to stay around for too long.
Soon it departed and I was left alone with the sea,
Just the Lighthouse, the beach and a person called me.
Who could have predicted I would find such peace,
By a tiny white Lighthouse and a tiny little beach?
I don't care what was predicted, for I have found Tranquility.
I don't care for my other life, or my academic ability.
I care for my family - my friends - in sense,
Battling the enimies and welcoming strength.

Whenever I'm lonely, or sad or alone,
I dream of the Lighthouse and suddenly, I'm home.

A lovely piece, with secret depths, sitting in the space between the worlds, where land and sea meet. Well done. Shaun.
