Relentless

For a little change I decided to create a Poem form nothing, or to be more exact, From a starting point of having no words or phrases. Therefore what resulted has been the work of a couple of days, writing, editing and reediting until we reached the completed Poem.

I have been caught in the mindset of Waves and crashing waves onto rocks, which for me became the starting point for this project. As many times before, Poems that I felt most excited and encouraged by the completed versions, Never honestly reach that point in the readers feedback.

This has been tone of the exciting parts of Poetry and placing them on a blog. Some poems that I liked or even was rather excited by, did not reach that level of expectation. Thus here on this one My expectation is not very high, BUT instead I have a hope that readers will like this completed poem.

About The Poem:

Todays Post is a poem of Love that has both parties in a coastal region, which coule be anywhere in this world, where Tides are subject to the often tempered moves of the weather. When as often is in some of my Poetry, one party leaves the relationship for unknown reasons, the other remains in an almost heartbroken frame of mind.

But as stated at the beginning above, This Poem was created from an empty and blank starting point. From this ideas eventually flowed and the finished poem is what resulted.

I know when reading and researching poetry from poets of the past. What comes into play usually are, Insfluence, Location and beliefs or other factors that may influence the poet comes into play. BUT on this Post, NONE OF That would take one anywhere closer to the goal. Unless one takes an over active imagination and a belief that one could create a complete series of poems from nothing using only imagination.

On this occasion this says a whole lot about myself. But nothing else to state Except, This Poem has been fun creating and the past couple of days took a whole lot of personal time.

Having said all of this; Please Enjoy This Poem:


Once more I stuck with AI to provide a suitable Image to go along with this Post. Therefore usual creadit etc for copyrite etc goes where it needs to be. I believe this best suits the Topic of the Poem.


Relentless



Once watching waves kiss the rocks was fun,
How Natures kiss can ne’er be undone,
But sands lost to time’s relentless sway,
Those tides, fate’s design yet did decay.


Fate’s flame did part, where love took flight,
And kissed the rocks in fading light,
As it once sailed on high, cloud bound,
And sea’s kissed the sky, love was crowned.


Still sorrow consumed and filled this heart,
Your path, a design, did depart,
There Waves roared, a relentless flow ,
Catching a lone spray, yet would grow.


Dreaded dreams filled this heart with you,
Inspired as the dying flame drew,
Closer to the rocks, where love crashed,
But rescued by, despairing heart, thrashed.


Rowdy rocks of destruction hissed,
At lovers hearts when first they kissed,
Yet in this lonely heart, hope beats,
That your shadow falls on these streets.

ENDING THOUGHTS:

Thank you for following me on my little journey, that is composing or writing poetry. If Life is a journey which we all walk on and my journey in creating Poetry is a journey of it’s own. Which I still learn much on as I write.

At times I experiment on methods or way how I can improve my poetry, therefore getting feed back is always most welcome for such as these.

When I write poetry, some readers may be offended with something within the poetry. I do not write to offend, But such are written for reasons I outline in the posts. Often I miss typos and mistakes when publishing each poem. BUT I correct the moment I discover such mistakes.

But Poetry is a form of art work that I enjoy and thus using it in a manner to touch or inspire the reader.

Thank you for joining me on this journey.

Poetry is a learning curve where I always work to improve. A lot of work goes into editing and reediting and then repeating that process on a number of occasions until I am happy with the result. This is how I operate in creating posts to share here.

Please forgive for any such mistakes and for your understanding this.
