At The Sea

of love

At The Sea

Footprints
Long ago -
     can't hold

Warm water
Yesterday-
       now cold

Clear sky
In the past-
      it's gone

Dreams made
Not alone-
     undone

Seawall
Once that strong-
      Broken

Seabirds
Together-
      unseen

Two hearts
Believing-
        asking

One love
Forever-
         hoping

I like the style of this piece, Dhaye. Every stanza requires me pause and ponder on what it wants to convey. This is what i get on this piece: Circumstances are always changing. What is sweet today may turn out sour one day; what is strong yesterday may turn weak today... We can never predict the future but we can always hope and believe that the future will turn out better than today.

Very good! Plus 10. Lol
I love your insights, Gab. I did not intend to portray such idea because for me it was just a challenge to myself when I said to Ms. Lydi to my comment in her review to "To The Moon" that I will make a poem about the sea. So the idea came first about the 'footprints in the sand' and then as I write, I add other things that I usually observe when I am in a beach.
Thanks, Gab.

Beautiful and hopeful poem. The sea and love. Two pieces needed to create a forever memory. Thank you dear Poet for sharing the amazing poetry.

It was my pleasure and you are welcome. Hard time for me. I work retail. Few days to read and relax.

*SIGH*… Love is perfect but humans are not, and all we can hope for is love is strong enough to overcome our imperfections. Your words and hauntingly beautiful my friend.

[Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)]

Thanks a lot, Sir!

You are most welcome young lady.

yes, as lydi said...."bittersweet"

there is love and hope at the end...but earlier on...that feeling that nothing beautiful lasts...

i have found too often, love is ephemeral...no matter how hard we try to preserve it.

Thank you so much, sir j.

Heavy sigh! Dh, this is just so lovely. The emotions are velvety soft albeit bittersweet. A poignant beauty of a write. Lydi**
