Sep 2010
A veil of glittering mist pours over the boundless sea.
The chilling breeze howls, blaring a haunting tune.
I gaze at the whitecaps tumbling, crashing endlessly.
Smooth silver sand on the shore shines beneath the moon.
Peaceful seagulls still murmur softly as they sleep,
While seashells dance to a silent song upon the ocean floor.
Dolphins frolic gracefully amid the navy deep.
The soothing sound of night, and the waves I can’t ignore.
A canopy of stars lights up the azure sky,
And the midnight blue water reflects their glow.
I close my eyes and listen and feel like I could fly.
But now sweet sleep is calling me, too tempting to say no.
Alone by the sea, not one thing do I lack,
The pull of the tide always keeps me coming back.
Another one from my collection:) sorry if it's not quite up to par with some of the other stuff on this website but i'm just a beginner:) oh and by the way it's a Shakespearean Sonnet.
