Carried off with the breeze
are loving thoughts that please
Weathered by the sun
the shadow that will run
Thrashing against the rocks
my hopes ticking clocks
Buried beneath the sand
lies a limp, outstretched hand
A ship of dreams passing in the night
sluicing water in its lonely plight
Seagulls circling the shore
my heart grows quiet once more
The setting sun's reddish hue
blinding oblivion obscure's the view

| Nice comparisions between your emotions and forces of nature, I like that. Some very good imagery and symbolism. The last verse is my personal favorite. That last line drives the point home! |

| Scorp, you never cease to amaze me. You are soooooo brilliant that I (embarrassingly) must admit my own ignorance. What does it all mean? But it is a great write....I'm just a few short of a full load sometimes. |

A very good abstract write, Scorp. It seems to focus upon hopes, thoughts and dreams, which become over shadowed. Then the body buried more deeply, but still reaching for those dreams. Following the turmoil, some peace with the sunset and more oblivion to the pain. It appears to start with and end with hope, having endured the turmoil.
Anyway, that was my take on it. Again, very creative, with powerful imagery
Well done, Scorp

Yeah, sometimes it does feel like an *ugly* head, doesn't it. But part of poetic creativity is turning it into something beautiful as you've done here. I particularly relate to "my hopes ticking clocks." The road is rough, the wait is long to find out where your hopes belong. (But worth the wait.)
Great metaphors and style in this one, scorp.
Blessings, J. |

this is enchanting, intriguing, so hauntingly
beautiful; the way it is intermingled within itself
confounds the mind; ...but the hand! whatever
happened to the poor hand!:)
hugs n' love nessa |
