The ocean

The ocean can be soul searching

The soul searching ocean
Glistens, a flickering reflection
Infecting my soul with memories
The world the ocean is one

I walk down to the waters edge
The oceans breeze, so soft, so gentle
The ocean seas so full of mystery
Yet full of romance
As I stare out into the sea,
Memories float away

Reflections, unfamiliar, to the naked eye
A gleaming shape floats by, in the warmth of the sun
Mysteries, dreams, and achievements
The ocean is alive with these stories
Stories of lost souls, emotions, thoughts
The ocean dances back and forth
Delivering messages

A cool spray mist dances across my face
the grass floats back and forth in the drift
I kneel down at the waters edge
Where the ocean lingers
Catching glimpses of sea creatures
Miniature creatures


My mind wanders to what lingers at the heart of the ocean
To feel at one with the ocean, with this world
As I slowly sink further into the sand
The rocks smooth from the pounding of waves
The soul searching ocean, glistened
Where I wandered and listened
To the stories of the ocean

Thank you my friend, Not so long ago I followed the ocean that circumnavigates Australia in a campervan with my dogs. It certainly helped me clear my head, and prepare me for the life ahead.

There is something so magical about the ocean - the serenity of the cool ocean breeze, the cool feel of sand between the toes, the healing ebb and flow of the tide. You have captured the magic and the mystery in your beautiful poem. Stunning poetry my friend.
