from inkdrop – poetry, places and events
#socs #poetry #motion
the waves moved us on
destination isle of man
behind us north wales
sails blown here to there
waters waves breaking against the boat
while some dived down deck
crashing waters hazardous
getting wet ? least of worries
grateful for lighthouse
#CYW #PacificBlue
When i see you around
i’m reminded of warm summer days
and the waters of the ocean
lapping the sandy shore
Attracting the sportsmen
playing about for fun
in their watersports gear
Motorboats and Jetskis
tearing a white wave
through your dark blue waters
Your Colours more deep
than your Mediterranean cousin
but seamen still hang around your deep shades
hoping to land that one in a million catch
Red Canoe Enters
The bay of the Canal side
ready for paddles
Red Canoe Enters
Cutting through watery depths
Creating White Waves
Red Canoe Enters
Gliding past the floating buoys
in shades of orange
#fowc #Gliding
The crew waited for that moment
the moment that was perfect
the moment to change direction
No Salty Afternoon Washes
No Swabbing the decks of Seawater
No trouble from the turning wind
Simply moving through the water
Simply cutting past the breakers
Simply Gliding through the sea
#writephoto #prompt
Family sit on the bank,
they’ve been doing this for years
keeping an eye out for their neighbours
providing cover from the atlantic wind
for the plants, and sometimes an animal or bird
and giving shade to the pretties in pink
their reward for this task
watching the breakers
coming in to the shore
#Fowc #Dial
Digit turns the circuit
in a number of turns
as connection is made to a
loved one far away, through invisible waves
#cyw #rock #marble #Green #Caribbean
They dug down deep to find this rock
The shade of the Caribbean sea
Look carefully and you might find a wave or two
Captured in the smooth cut surface
that your breakfast has been served on.
#Holiday #Memories
An Impromptu decision
walking across the sands
on the way to dinner
Part of the sands
deep, fast running
and trapped tween the grooves
Another , lapped by the sea
deserted, but for footprints
left by the shoes
Trailing, then disappearing
the route almost visible
on the way to a fish salad
#Acrostic #Water
Rising up from the surface
In a kind of domino fashion
Pattern of concentric circles appear
Perpetrated by a pebble
Landing on, and falling through the water
Expanding outwards till they meet another circle when
Small Splashes occur on the surface
The tide is coming in
its wiping out the deftly deposited footprints
down shore
enveloping them in sea water
The tide is coming in
its tempting little toes
daintily dancing down the sand to
enter its cool waters
The Tide is coming in
its cartwheeling shells in its waves and
depositing them on the
edge of the dry bit of the beach
