Poet's Prayer

Standing at the waters edge,
Renewed, in the sultry air;
Daylight lingers with auburn rays,
I watch..in silent prayer.
There is hope in the changing light;
Ethereal beauty ends this day
With colors from an impressionist's dream,
The envy of Monet.
I am lost.. in the sea breezes,
Carrying wishes in the wind,
With thoughts of my hearts longing
Bringing darkness to an end.
The tide rising with the moon above
Starlight dancing along the shore;
Your hand guiding me along the path;
My love and faith restored.
