Waves churned and water crashed

A rowboat, on the ocean, thrashed

Skies were calmer, to the east

But to the west, there hailed a beast

Clouds of black had filled the sky

No chance for those aboard to try

To make it to land, safely ashore

Seems the boat, could take no more

Winds attacked, from every angle

In the storm, the timbers mangled

Caught, upon the choppy seas

The ocean tossed it, as it pleased

All that remained, was a beacon of light

That shined, ever brightly, into the night

She dreamed, her visions, vivid, true

Lost in moments, oft misconstrued

Painting, she welcomed her own world

The images danced, as colors swirled

She knew not what she would dream next

Which always left her quite perplexed

No, it didn’t matter, she minded herself

Wistfully, they gathered dust on the shelf

Her visions, of days, now gone awry

She still continued, though not knowing why

It was quite unexpected, made her unsteady

Weak in the knees, though she knew, she was ready

The icy cold water, was nothing to fear

The wave took her under, freedom was near

She didn’t fight it, it was what she awaited

Back to the sea, where her life was created

No longer wishing to be human, unkind

She knew now, to never leave the ocean behind

Powdered Blue ~ #poetry #MarchWriting

Eyes, like the heavens, powdered blue

Sadness, crept its way into

Lips, as pale as palest pink

I watched, but ne’er did she blink

Her beauty, was so well concealed

Hidden, yet, it was revealed

Behind the mask, a haunted being

Wide eyed, she remained unseeing

The wonder of God

Graces beauty with twilight

As night approaches
