Times like This



Watched a big burnt orange setting sun

Kiss goodnight froth crested sea waves

As it slowly descended at a snail's pace

Behind distant darkening horizon’s edge


With humbleness as my only companion

I felt wrapped in angelic awesome peace

Witnessing another myriad natural event

Ostensibly displayed for this solitary soul


Algae stained driftwood on the shoreline

Adeptly honed smooth from tidal tossing

Lay abandoned like sculptured art forms

Appreciated silently by this lone traveler


Inhaling the impetus of oceanic fragrances

A salty scented zephyr tickles the tongue

Stimulating a pleasant inner rejuvenation

To a hungry heart and stripped-down soul


When trite tribulations of this aging world

Appear nigh impossible in comprehension

Its times like this I quietly contemplate upon

To supplant nightmares with idyllic dreams

A beautiful piece of writing Phill. Lovely use of language and alliteration. We all need a place like this to retreat to when the going gets tough. Your words were calming to read, and the image posted superb.

Very serene, Phill. I find an ocean shoreline to be one of the most peaceful places to walk...especially in the early hours before the sun has completely cleared the horizon.
Well done. Thanks for the image.
