“Every time I stand before a beautiful beach, its waves seem to whisper to me:
If you choose the simple things and find joy in nature’s simple treasures,
life and living need not be so hard.”
― Psyche Roxas-Mendoza
In the quiet, still morning
Of calm waters and painted skies
A tall story waits to be told.
On the surface of life
Becalmed and serene
The undertow is of strife
Not living the dream.
I drift down the river
To lay anchor in muddy waters
A fool waiting for life to deliver
Or a lamb to the slaughter.
Just floating on tides
Sails curtailed
The breeze just a sigh
No canvas unfurled.
Abandoned in the mouth of the estuary
Just point against the tide
Looking to sea and ecstasy
Alone! And no-where to hide.
Barnacles hidden from sight
If exposed would give fright
No longer in youthful flight
That cannot be right.
In the quiet, still morning
Of calm waters and painted skies
A tall story waits to be told.
Repost!!!!
Bare feet! On the beach
Sand between your toes
Tide out. Almost out of reach
Air full of laughter of happy children’s souls.
Race to the shore line
Trousers turned up
Sun and heat, it’s fine
Cold water over toes, lapping.
K’s in the water, splashing.
Falls over, soaked! Squeals
Bampi rocking
Back on his feet, reals.
Back up the sands
Past the tethered donkeys
Down in a thump we land
Eating sand covered sarnie’s
Up top, into the fair
His eyes wide at the magic
Seeing the rides, wondering if he dares
Colours bright, he trips the light. Fantastic.
Mini roller coaster he rides,
Fast, up and down
He cannot hide his smiles
Ride stops, not a frown.
Onto the next, in a plane
Flying high as his imagination takes him
On a horses back, gripping its mane
Children’s voices, like a song to sing.
Day is over, he’s not slowing
Bampi is flagging
Always rushing
No sign of lagging.
His smile has been contagious
Shinning brighter than the sun
Fabulous
The day is done.
In the quiet, still morning
Of calm waters and painted skies
A tall story waits to be told.
Here to unfold.
Not always at anchor
the open seas I hanker
When set free
I’m like a child full of glee
Full wind in my sail
I bring bring smiles, never fail
Head first across seas
My anchor chain I flee.
Open waters I part
on an adventure I start
Wind billows, sail crack
Salt waters across by bows, smack.
Sunlight across my deck
Redness on my Masters neck
I race like a bird on the wing
My rigging does sing.
Waters blue/ green
Children on deck serene
Full of laughter
‘Faster, Daddy, faster.
Dolphins race us
In and out of water. No fuss.
Whales on the horizon
Beautiful creatures, not surprising.
Upbeat and racing along
Heart beating song.
Off into the sunset
More adventures to find, and give vent.
In the quiet, still morning
Of calm waters and painted skies
A tall story waits to be told.
