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
