POEM STARTER

Inspired by Niki

Create a poem set on an empty beach, where you are left at peace with your thoughts.

Waves

All my life, I’ve learned to reside by the water Although the strangers fear the waves, And the creatures fears the people; I saw the sparkle of the mysterious bodies that laid between the lands, I felt the call of the tide and the light of the moon When growing old, it will always be there; I’m sure, So as I look beyond the creatures that lay in the dark water; Know that when I perish along the waves, To not look for me beneath the sunsets on the horizon, Or the twinkling lights in the night sky; Look for me in the ocean; I will wave to you hello and wave to you goodbye I will watch you from the house with the blaring light, when you build a castle along the moat of the shore, I can be the wind that moves through the trees to your yellow hair And when I come back to you again; I will be a stranger, fearing your waves But eventually falling in love with the crashing of your blue swells and the specks of your yellow hair Then I will know; This is where I reside Along the tides Along the shore Filled with love And nothing more.
