Swept ashore, she arrives with the tides
Beauty lies silent, she no longer hides
In waters that flow, harmonic, attune
Where the sun quietly rises, along with the moon
When peace stills thunderous clouds in the sky
With stars that still sparkle, radiant, high
She’ll sleep, ever blissful, upon solemn land
A mermaid’s dream, so carefully planned

Do not look for me
Hidden in a fort
Beneath icy snow
Still falling carelessly above
Between the daffodils and daisies
Amidst the cool grasses
Of a wakening meadow
Along the dunes on the beach
Betwixt the waves
Crashing on the shore
Encompassed by leaves
Strewn across the ground
In no particular way
In the obvious places
You presume to find
A wandering spirit
I will not be there
Instead look within and find
A life otherwise uncommon
With its own rhythm
A heart’s journey
It is there you may find
Who you are seeking
It is there you will
Find me lost

Fire lights the sky
As sun sets the sea aflame
Kissing it goodnight

Do I dare to dream, in morning light?
Or toss these thoughts aside?
Promises cast upon the sea
Swept away, with the evening tide
I walk along these rocky shores
In hopes that I may find
A trace of you, a subtle hint
Or something left behind
I stand here, chasing shadows
Found in the water’s swell
They circle close, around my soul
Then wish a fond farewell
Was it you I caught a glimpse of?
Can you see me waiting here?
Yes, I will stand upon this ocean
Til you let me know you’re near
