Escape to the clouds

Escape to the clouds

A Poem by SleeplessVolcano

Take my hand
there's nothing else to hold on to
Grab your hat though
In a minute
You'll squeeze the sand
between your stressed out toes
Let the peaceful water
splash over your soul
Breathe in, as deep as you can
for this haven
is the birthplace of peace of mind
Exhale
tell the sea at least three secrets
and your heart
will escape to the clouds.

So beautiful and wonderful the poem is my dear friend.
"Exhale
tell the sea at least three secrets
and your heart
will escape to the clouds."
I loved the above lines. I have done often in my life and I hope to do more. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry and your thoughts.

Ckouds!!! Yes, yes and yes. Have been trying to inspire people when stressed, low, needing a lift.. to raise their eyes to the clouds and watch them change shape and what/how they do it!

Your poem really is beautiful, peaceful, softly subtle yet inspiring. It is a stress- breaker too, loving, gentle and more. The final three lines are perfect.. the sea gives, the clouds give - we humans should show our delight and respect.

Keep safe, take care.

.. and pays to remember that we too are part of it!
love it, Sleepless! I am a land luber at heart .. give me the forests and streams and hills any day; but your write gives me a small piece of the Divine .. a comfort, peace and unity displayed down those steps to the sand and sea ... to be elevated to the clouds .. love it! the breath ... and the three secrets to leave for the tides to take out ... fine meditation this morning says i! first poem read of the day for me .. thanks for sharing ;)
