Sue Vincent’s Thursday Photo Prompt – Waves
Use the image below as inspiration to create a post on your own blog… poetry, prose, humour…light or dark, whatever you choose.
Standing on the shore
listening to the sound of gentle waves
I look out to the misty horizon
and find comfort for my misty soul
filled with grief and longing for
a second chance at loving
an innocent, sweet life gone…
A chance to do better than I did
even though I know the second chance
will never come again, so I cry
the tears of longing knowing that
I have let go just a little bit more…
Hoping the deafening silence
of a sweet life gone will
become more quiet
and the ache in my heart
will anguish a little less
each breath will exhale
a peaceful acceptance
and these opaque eyes
will become translucent
to see life after loss
shine bright once more.
The hint of hope at the end there really lifts this poem. Thank you for joining in this week, Deborah.
