Stand Beside The Ocean

Stand Beside The Ocean

 

standing beside the ocean

and feeling its sustaining breeze,

 

now taking in a deep breath

and thinking of better memories...

 

because nothing last forever

and no one dwells in constant ease

One need go no further than standing
by the ocean, feeling the breeze.

There is something mystical in just being
in the presence of this unimaginable majesty.

Not everyone can visit this magical universe and
bring it back. As usual, in a few words, you have
captured the scents , sounds and the panorama of
the ocean.

Thank you for this peek behind the curtain.

But man, ain't that saltwater the cure for what ails you? Made me think about Galveston for some reason. Anyways, a great little gem of a piece bro, much enjoyed.

Your words reflect how I feel when standing beside the ocean. Throughout my life the ocean has been a very big part of my soul. I grew up on Bay St. George, in Stephenville, Newfoundland, Canada, and have a pirate in my ancestry. Looking out over the bay I was always fascinated by the small island I could see in the distance. It was called Sandy Point, and there was folklore about it being a haven for pirates long ago. That certainly fuelled my imagination! Loved your poem!

wow, pure poetry james, to ponder with outlook, the meaning speaks with deep insight yet subtle to
the environment, its as if one is truly overlooking the ocean and watcching memories fade into the horizon.
Exzcellent job.

I like this. It's simple and the truth is out there for everyone to see and understand. It's a very warm poem.
