It was cold down by the ocean
I walked alone along the beach
Glad I wore my jacket
And a sweater underneath.
The wind picked up, the waves were high
I could hear the ocean roar
I loved watching as they approached
And made their way to shore.
The moon was playing “hide n seek”
As it hid behind the clouds
Peeking out here and there
in between the dark grey shroud.
A few ghost crabs….scampering about
Needing to find shelter
A storm was brewing in our midst
Night birds fleeting…helter skelter.
Darker still, the sound of thunder
They had predicted quite a storm
The wind was whipping, the ocean churning
Nature sounding the alarm.
I walked awhile, about a mile
I was out there all alone
I knew the rain was coming soon
It was time to head back home.

Lovely poem, thanks for sharing!… even a storm can be a enchanting event filled with wonder when walking the beach… 🙂 was it a mere storm or was it the gods awakening to start the day, one wonders… Hmmmmmmmmmmmm… 🙂

I love the atmosphere you capture in your poem 🙂 It is exactly what I love to do, given the chance, walk alone along a beach while the wind whips up a storm. 🙂
