Waves of Inspiration

by Amber "V" Moonstone

Glistening waves touching my bare feet,
mesmerized by the steady voice of the ocean
calling me to recognize the beats of my heart
as I walked along the shoreline.

I could see the ships in the distance,
the horizon clearly marked, along with
a similar distant shoreline.
The familiar sight brought calmness to my soul.

I knew you were there looking toward my shore.
Standing in your white Tshirt, old jeans and no shoes,
hair fluttering in the wind, as if freedom reigned
and I, in my long white gauze dress accepting the waves.

Tendrils of my hair, blowing into my mouth,
brought tenderness to my heart.
I could smell the ocean breeze that filled my lungs,
with rejuvenating salt filled air.

I was home, once again,
in the environment that I love,
Waves of frigid foam, encircling my feet,
I did not feel the cold, only the warmth of my heart.

Today, marked a turning point,
I know what I have been dreaming,
is "real", not a fantasy born from lust,
but a dream born from love.

Wave after wave crashed against the shore,
and with each crest gave me new hope
and rebirth of a life that is on the right path.
I have come home once again, thank the Universe!
