Poetry Form by Rhoda Galgiani, Poet

The Sea Lives

The sea taking a salty breath

Hurried to wake the sleepy shore

Evades life by a drowning death

Holds the sandy earth by its core

Ends a struggle buried within

Never believed in its own wake

Enters a place where oceans spin

Nature’s riptide died in its quake

Every child laughs a joyous sound

Delighted sea dances in wave

Evil thought now hide below ground

Discover seashells they now crave

Ending toils shall now disappear

Rough sea became gentle white knight

Today children play with no fear

Ready to smile waves are just right

-  Rhoda Galgiani

A Day of Joy...

Rainbow touch the sleepy valley below Yellow streams within cast its glow Bringing love to all who live there Share their lives with someone who cares   Planting tulips with ruby red tips As if the flower was touched by ones lips Colorful blooms for all to enjoy Brings happiness to every girl and boy   Evening comes slow but sure Ending the day with love that is pure As lovers wish upon a shooting star Dreams of happiness that takes them far   - Rhoda Galgiani

Silhouette in the Sun

Hills outside the valley
picturesque in brilliant green
talk to us and our souls
reminding what’s in between

Heaven’s blue will capture you
taking us into rapture’s flight
saving all in a single bound
accepting His destiny’s plight

Speak to Him and call His name
for His words echo’s in our minds
teaching us love and forgiveness
will save our earthly souls in time

His breath was taken long ago
for His flock it’s said, that He died
my sinner’s eyes look at Him
I feel His pain as I cried

Today, bright and glorious blue
I feel His love surely come
For we are but a silhouette
in the shadow of His sun -

remembering the day, He died
for each and everyone

Poetry with Photo's...

Rise Above  
The sun beams, creating diamond light
on a river that cascades carelessly
as a hawk slowly glides upstream
I rest amid the ghosts of evergreens
surrounded by blazing wildflowers
gazing up at tall maples of brilliant green
to the blue that speaks in whispers
I drift in the calm and rise above

I Trust...  
I trust in Him always
Never have I been scorn
For He shows me my path
Showing me truth and love
I am saved from my wrath

I trust in Him always
He makes sure I am safe
Protects my daily stride
Guides me on my journey
Whether narrow or wide

I trust in Him always
For His truth cares for me
He clears dark eyed vision
Counsels my every move
Make the right decision

I trust in Him Always
I will follow Him home
For He is my true Lord
I never need to fear
With Him, my soul has soared

Lost...

Alone was I, not known as why
Going on about my way
As I grow tall, I will show all
Time will tell - is what I say

Show me the path, take me from wrath
Walking towards a straight line
It is my dream, a laid out theme
That will shine my light in time

Questions I ask, inside a mask
Secretly keeping me sound
Nurtures my soul, from its harsh toll
Until the day - I am found

Saddened Tear...

Love hides
A sea inside
Roll-a-coaster it rides
Sadly, it cried
Love hides

Drowned heart
Tastes salty rain
Love drifted far apart
Heart lost again
Drowned heart

New breath
Renews one’s heart
Takes saddened tear from death
Trust from the start
New breath   - Rhoda Galgiani
