#TankaTuesday #Poetry Challenge

shore serenity
silent whispers evoke thoughts
waves caress my toes
low tide speaks in syllables
hurtling down memory lane.

***

memories numb me
swallowed by the tide of time
I study each wave
and step into the glum sea
to sail on its silky edges.

***

waves wash away moods
comfort sails with emotions
evanescent tides
melt castles of illusion
pacify plaintive musing.

Thanks to Lisa Fox (aka JadeLi) who is the host for this week’s TankaTuesday Challenge. She has given a list of words and says “choose three (or more) words from the given list and write a syllabic poem using them.” Click on the link to see all the words. I’ve highlighted the ones I chose from the list. 

Thank you dear readers.

The Dark Pool

Sue Vincent’s #Writephoto

They stumbled upon a pool
A dead pool, stagnant.
Striving to breathe,
Bereft of the elixir of life.

Cascading stream fell silent
The day avarice ate the woods
Paths around it closed in support
Rocks reiterate man’s ruse.

Stranded near a watery grave,
With parched throats
They wait, wondering
Is there a way out of this wilderness?

How did they stray so far?
Edges extending to eternity
The ceaseless drift of nature
Reinforcing her mystic hold.

The only way out – walk slowly
Listen to vibes of Mother Nature
Her whispers are best mentors
She knows how to forgive.

Unknown Love

image of ocean and a wave rushing to the shore

I could hear the waves
Whispering softly into my ears.

I could see them breaking at my feet
Tugging at my heart.

I could discern the echo
Reverberating all around me.

I could envision their calling
Loving invitation into their arms.

I could feel the sweep
Getting carried by their stroke.

I could hold the breezy touch
Caressing my fingertips.

I could embrace the love
Profound and intensely distinctive.

I could experience the peace
Twirling with them, again and again.

I could sense the solace
Of merging into the unknown.

The unknown blue, enveloping all
The luring love, alluring all.

Do you ever feel the same kind of pull… the feeling of merging into the surroundings?
