Fate of Eternity

Sands of yesteryear echoing in the wind

Upon shores where invisible footprints wander

And ebony blue waves whisper secrets of lovers past

within the soft vibration of the breeze~

 

Vivacious curves of the hourglass flow

Into the undeniable arms of destiny

 

 

And the haunted ships of forevermore

navigate without a compass in the sea

propelled by the fate of eternity~

 

And the salty perfume of the sea nymphs

lure lonely sailors to their death~

 

 While a message in a bottle

lies upon sea glass shores

            where invisible footprints wander~

I love that line 'Vivacious curves of the hourglass flow ...". Such a surreal image like a Dali painting where the hourglass itself is the medium that keeps time and not the sand within. Simply beautiful Rose!

Hi Rose. A lovely write and presentation that is filled with mystery and romance. Well crafted free verse. Good imagery, flow and tone. Nice rhythm and enjambment. Nice use of personification. Good depth of feeling; there is an eerieness and sadness of poignant beauty that carry the whispered secrets of lovers that haunt the glassy shores. Whimsical. Good word choice. Nice use of repetition for emphasis of feeling. Good closing lines. Well penned and an enjoyable read. Write on!
