DISTANT SHORE

The shade of Dawn

shuddered

upon~Horizon's door

pulling and tugging

on the tides~welcome rides

~~~~`~~~~

Waves awoke

rising

steady swells

Their... journey's set

Awaiting...

a rising Sun

~~~~`~~~~

Heired to it's throne

a Sun~lit~beacon peered

peeking

Dazzling it's seekers

upon it's distant shore

~~~~`~~~~

Perfume scented wind

brushed in

as the Sun warmed the air

and sea...

with it's majesty

~~~~`~~~~

Fantastic poem, and complimented perfectly with the art. The writing gives the idea of the horizon giving birth to the sun. Beautiful.

Thank you, For Sharing!!!!!!

passion

Wanting something is not enough. You must hunger for it. Your motivation must be absolutely compelling in order to overcome the obstacles that will invariably come your way.
In the end, it is the person you become, not the things you have achieved, that is the most important.
