To Sea

Sittin' on a beach on the seas of life.

As I sit upon the shore,
Fresh with fallen snow.
Hving watched them all pack,
And cried when I seen them go.
Looking at the emerald sea,
For it fails to compete.
With my envy of all of them,
And as I sit here incomplete.
I remember how life and love,
Always slipped through my hands.
Elusive and never there,
Escaping me like an hourglass's sands.
Looking past the emeralds and jades,
I see a sapphire blue.
Searching for a reflection,
And a chance to see you.
So that I can see your face,
For finally an end a goal,
A reason for my heart to race.

Beutiful, Good job!

it is beautifully written!

The sea is a meadow of us all, a lovely place, full of wisdom, and ages in history. A lot of us, refind things, and loves, or wisdom of life within the sea, as I did too, in a poem about Greece, where I walked the old Greek Mythology. ~ Wings of Freedom. Or my Ironic poem ~ You Rock. Where rocks lay wiseful in the sea, with no change... and oh so wise, the same time. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful piece of writing!
