The power to dream.

The power to dream.

A Poem by vincentbals
"

Again an old poem I found on my previous blog.

"
Deep blue water
submerges thousand grains of sand.
Granular water
smoothly changes direction,
back and forth,
Curled tiny waves
overwhelming bare feet.
Observed by colorful pears and shells,
inspired by the feet’s ability
to pace
back and forth.
They let themselves go
with the power of the sea.

Just to feel like them.

Dreaming, letting go and feeling one's way through the paths of life is much like the movement and flow of water. Just as the sea is a powerful, overwhelming force we possess that same type of energy if only we fully embrace courage and appreciate freedom. I like the correlation.

This paints a seaside portrait. This is a relaxing poem that describes natures beauty at its best.

there is beauty even in the mundane moments...we just have to see it...life is full of ebbing and flowing...back and forths...ups and downs...ins and outs...always moving...I'm glad you didn't try to make this more than it is...just a beautiful appreciation of he place where earth and water meet...

At the beginning of the poem, the rhythm was slightly shaky but when I got farther into the poem, the rhythm became smoother. It gives off a sense of euphoria and peace, the latter is something I admittedly look for in poems. It's light and has excellent imagery.
