Sounds Of Arrival

Folder: 
Published Works

Whisper silent words of laughter
to the faces that surround. From

warm touch of hand to cold drop
of eyes, let mirth embrace the ships

of scorn. We travel on the sea of
confusion seeking any old port to

attach ourselves to. In this way we
highlight our loneliness; create our

space on the sea. Echo strong
thoughts of survival as the roar of

the waves crash into smiling face.
Ancient dreams of solitude escape

from the heart and we are begging
the birds to stop their cackling tones.

A cavern beckons to the frustrated
horizons of despair. Let salt and sand

merge together to correct the falling
of pride. Hot streaming sun insists on

sweating out trips of rainbowed doom.
In hope, we cross the sea of adventure

until we arrive at our happiness. Whisper
sounds of arrival, we are laughing and free.
