Hi Joy! What a treat for me to stumble upon your beautiful, spiritual poem to start my day! I truly loved the uplifting mood of your poem. You succeeded in capturing my attention and I felt relaxed and in awe as I read it. The ocean and it's beach are always so pretty, and you expressed that well in your poem. Even if there is a threatening storm, the beach is still a wondrous place. As I sit here drinking my coffee, I wish that I was at that beach. You used the perfect descriptions which opened many of my senses, so that I could truly imagine being there. Your first stanza, made me think of what the grey, cloudy sky looks like as it touches at the water. I can 'see' the choppy ocean waves blending into the dark air around it. Uhoh, although I love how you talked about the angels and their thunderous lullaby, I'll have to confess that I am terrified of thunder and lightning. Joy, I will think of your words during the next thunderstorm, and I'll try to imagine it as a thunderous lullaby. I'm sincere! Your words will stay with me. The sign of an amazing author is that they have the ability to write something so special, that people will remember it at later times in their life! I particularly liked your phrase, wrinkles in the sand. My family and I love to walk along the beach. I always find those little ripples to be like pretty artwork! It's nice to see that you wrote about it. I see many ocean-type poems, but no one seems to mention those little details. I loved the last stanza. The author seemed to relate the beach to our life as well. Joy, thank you for adding images with this beautiful poem. I can honestly say that I spent a good deal of time enjoying these images. I love to take pictures of sea gulls at the beach. I never seem to get nice shots of them, but you found a perfect image to add here. Very nice.
