All In A Night

written by: Phyllis P. Colucci

@FictionTarot

Whispering winds sing such sweet songs

Lingering chimes thrill the night

The sea roars wild in the twilight

Crashing its waves of foam white

Old sand castles fade where the shore wets its lips

Echoes of fog horns bounce off the tips

Of the rocks in the moonlight which shimmer so fine

Like the lustrous sheen of onyx divine

The deep-daring odor of seaweed is strong

Riding the waves as they tumble along

And cotton-ball clouds float ‘cross the sky

Ducking past moonbeams, then meet eye to eye

The melody heightens as deep darkness falls

The night will grow meek when the Sun Lord calls

And morning will open its arms to the sea

--The waves will fall softly, the sand castles free.

NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR:

Sometimes life gets so complicated that we miss the simple beauty of nature - like a relaxing day/night, spent by the spectacular sea!
