I like to wander by the sea
to ponder all that’s in my mind
and wonder what becomes of me
I like to wander by the sea
for understanding sets me free
I never know what I might find
I like to wander by the sea
to ponder all that’s in my mind

“This constant storm. This angry sea
Our shoulders to the wind
Within the Tempest. You and me
This constant storm. This angry sea
Love will be what love will be
Love hurts and we have sinned
This constant storm. This angry sea
Our shoulders to the wind”

lol everyone has a different version … maybe you could share your minor transgression with the d’Verse community? They are open for scallywags and poets of any pedigree 😎

Excellent job, SweetKate!

And it makes me want to wander by the sea! Warms up this cold evening for me!
HUGS!!! 🙂

ah then think of our sunny warm sea … hope to visit my favourite beach. I might just post a few photos but keep the location top secret. It’s real heaven on earth with talc powder white sand azure blue sea and a haven for roos and lorikeets. Those that discover it seldom seldom share the location or it would be overrun by instagrimmers!

It really comes together nicely, Kate!
At first, when perusing the rules, I wondered, “Eh? What’s this?”
“No way this is going to be anything but clunky,” I thought…then I read what you created.
It flows gracefully, and with an irresistible pulse.
Way to exceed the challenge, and by a fair measure, too!

Very nice sound and sense. I also like how “wander” and “ponder” are at least near rhymes. They tie the two lines of the couplet together. Your poem makes me want to walk on a beach to see what I might find.
