summer breeze
with ease
i contemplate
warm days
fog and haze
dissipate
boats sail
laughter hails
carefree days
sun sings
sea bird wings
flap away
if tomorrow
there is sorrow
i'll be fine
for here I'll be
this scene I'll see
in my mind

This has wonderful summery feel.
ReplyDeleteVangogh? Man have you gotta an eye.
ReplyDeleteTight poem - it just roles off the tongue. What a photo...you sure find beautiful things, places, and poems!
ReplyDeleteLovely photo, but it was your poem that captivated me. I love the form: three line stanzas and that wonderful rhyming scheme. More please.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful composition within the photo... love how the blues radiate throughout the piece.
ReplyDeleteAnd yet, the poetry has such stunning imagery that it sails far beyond the waters of your photo. Wonderful combo.
The Picture takes you away.... Your words make it a reality! Very Nice !
ReplyDeleteYou captured the essence of the landscape moment displayed within your photograph very well. I really like the way the pic came out, I dabble around with photography on the side, not very good though-so haven't posted anything yet, you're quite good at it, at least from my vantage point. Enjoyed the write/image
ReplyDeleteYour image is inviting... so different from the landscape I enjoy in the desert southwest! Your verse, while simple, contains the keys to happiness: Live in the Now. Appreciate it. When times are tough, count your blessings. Lovely!
