[hometext] => I wrote this a while ago on holiday listening to the waves at night while lying in bed. Nature is so intriguing
[bodytext] => Dusk draws the sky to darkest grey as the heavens mask the land The music plays as forever, the tune that never fades This time deep and soothing, the slowly drawn low violin Not the rasping roar of torrid plundering storm We are pawns to her billowing overture Her siren sonata that crashes white onto the rocks Captured by her allure, yet challenged by her monstrosity Changing like the unexpected moods of petulant child We erect flickering light beacons to warn of her unpredictability Perch them on jagged rocks to sentinel savage seas Yet they are slaves to whatever whim she chooses to inflict upon us Be it tame gentle rollers or shore crunching bared teeth Drifting to slumber we begin to parallel, entwine our lives in the pattern of night Heavy breaths pull her form back across moonlit gullied sands Together we rise and fall, restless pauses diminish in the long slow breath of sleep And as she stills, flat calm, I am washed in dreams [comments] => 3 [counter] => 222 [topic] => 27 [informant] => puppy_dog_eyes [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => NaturePoetry )
