The sounds of skylarks and curlews break the stillness of the morning The sensory architect already at work A fading moon compromises giving way to the sun dawning
Mist suspended over water waiting for warmth to dissipate The rocks are bathed clean Gulls squawking in salty air A traveling east wind invigorates
On a white capped speckled sea Fisher boats already far from view Night time now held to ransom for the day is center stage adorned in its morning hue
I have been writing poetry since I was a child and it has helped in the good times and bad times. I am always looking within to find the answers to life's problems and to write thought-provoking poetry and prose.
Thanks for checking it out.

A beautiful poem. You have created a lovely word picture.
Loving everything about this…most especially those last three lines. I could paint a picture from your words….and I want to be in it – experiencing this!
