The lonely blue kissed the sea <br />The sea herself bathed in blue <br />It seemed the blue kissed the blue <br />In the air, I felt it too. <br /> <br />The solemn swan made her way <br />Gently to lure, gently to sway <br />I saw the shore; it seemed miles apart <br />I saw the shore; ‘twas but a Sea apart <br /> <br />The sea of life; deep and vast <br />Changing faces, enacted fast <br />A tide pulled over, I heard a scream <br />The scream within a face to cast <br /> <br />To be, to kill for the wildest dream. <br /> <br />The eye where it all ended, where it all began <br />The unknown sea through which I ran <br />The shore was the limit, for the blue seemed high <br />Who swam did score, who leapt touched the sky <br /> <br /> <br />The sea did fill, the sea did spill <br />The shore did hold; the shore did kill <br />To swim across, to fight and stride <br />For the strong, yet not an easy ride <br />For the vain; to slain your pride <br />For the weak, to push up your side <br /> <br />Yet those who reach are but who sway <br />Along that sea, along its way <br />To drown, to leap. <br />To sow, to reap. <br />To reach out, to the unreached. <br /> <br />The blue blushed forth; crimson to red <br />The moonlight gaze galloped tight <br />It seemed so naïve to follow the light <br />But in a distance, I saw the shore turn bright!<br /><br />Rosmin Elsa Mohan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-shore-s-but-a-sea-apart/
