I wrote this as I walked along a beach, in an early spring day, while looking back over my life's experiences.

With the Sea

by The Poetess (SRP)

 

I wonder if I’ll grow to be

A wise old woman, walking with the Sea;

 

Letting courage dip more than just a toe;

Finding the depths as soothing as they are cold,

And every wave as young as it is old;

 

Noticing, my footprints in their long crooked row;

Seeing, each stumble as Wisdom’s chance to grow;

And every single step - the right way to go.

This is one of my favoites. So well written and I agree with the others who say it is thought provoking. It creates an image in your mind as you read it.

Ah, how we gain wisdom as we walk this road of life. Great imaginative poetry, opening the doors of one's mind as we contemplate life ahead and the length of it.
