#SeasonalSonnets 2019: 27th December

Hello my lovely readers

Today's sonnet is about the sea, inspired by the lovely views from Mel and Desi's place. I haven't got a photo, alas, as that involves support from other people and sometimes I like my sonnets to be an entirely independent activity. But hopefully the words will evoke at least some of the scenery.

27th December 2019

This poem is a paean to the sea
in honour of the solace that it offers
and all the healing vibes its waves bring me
since somehow its strong forces make me softer.
By that I mean it restores equilibrium,
reminding me that life, like tides, will ebb
and flow, and what might seem like a delirium
is just the chitter-chatter of my head.
We all have such a varied inner dialogue
(acknowledgement will help us all makes sense
for, though it often feels like a monologue,
frank conversations stop things being tense.)
Just like the rolling waves of gorgeous oceans
we're surrounded by tumultuous emotions
