Salinye Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 A few lines of this came out of me about a week ago during a random rp in mirc. Ever since then those lines have been tickling my brain begging me to put them into poetic form. So, here is what resulted. I thought a lot of my husband as I wrote. Poetry isn't my strong point, but I still like to write when I feel the need. :0) Feedback is welcome. I am… The hot jagged rocks that defend the coastline Beaten down by the unending waves of daily warfare- Winning and failing, hurting and weary, Ready to stand alone if need be, never giving up. You are… The misty ocean breeze that rushes over the waves To kiss my skin at dawn’s first light- Invigorating, refreshing, peaceful, Yet full of unpredictability and strength. We are… The glow from the setting sun that washes over the sea Gently massaging out the watery kinks and stresses of life- Warm, beautiful, awe-inspiring, Forever-entwined in celestial harmony. ~Salinye
Ayshela Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 nice! i soooo understand the first stanza.. but i LOVE this: Gently massaging out the watery kinks and stresses of life- i would never in a million years have come with "watery kinks" and yet it's so *right* in this context. Beautiful.
X-Sabre Posted August 14, 2004 Report Posted August 14, 2004 Awesome poem Sal.. Great to come back and see this.
