This is my part in One Shot Wednesday
Please visit some of these beautiful Peeps
BECKONING SEA
TAKE ME
Gazing at the water's swirl
I see the paths of the world
This way...maybe that
Up, down or maybe not
Where do I look to see
You. Which direction to
Face?
Around my ankles the water
Seems to race
And begin
To drag me in
Are you in cold or warm?
Only could I take your arm
And with you flee
To go safely
To that place
Of peace
Understanding
Forgiveness
Tolerant happiness
And patient love

WOW a sensitive soul are thee, est-ce de la grande poesie.
Love your poem nothing amateurish here but then again you know that, it is as beautiful as the photograph of the sea.
Cheers,
Joanny
this is a great shot. and great work. well done my freind
Reminds me I owe the beautiful great waters a visit, soon! Thanks-
Photo/poem - good pair.
Steve, this has to be one of the most beautiful pieces I have ever read from you! Very soul-searching... very profound. We all seek peace... and understanding... and forgiveness (and that last is always the most difficult to find, it seems). So often, the sea is a mirror for our souls. Is it any wonder we find our thoughts drifting when we are by the water?
I loved every word you wrote here... expressed as if from the deepest gut of your gut... no, not as if. Very very beautiful, Steve! When you write... I listen.
Hugs to you,
Nevine
Loved the photo, the way you weaved your words along, left me in warmth..sensitive one shot it is..:)
I love this more than you will ever know Steve. I could sit by the sea and watch for hours in amazement. When I have a lot on my mind thats where I like to think and work my problems out...The sea just does so much for my soul...
Enjoyed the rhyme and sentiment of the lines. Great image too.
a wise shot!
photo is wonderfull, the words too
see you
It's an inside job. Great One Shot.

Maestro...
Take a Bow!!!
Awe.... you are a man of beautiful words! The pic is awesome...I wish that were me...: )
…patient love…gripped me instantly
love the water picture you paint steve - and found me longing for standing barefoot in a stream...
It seems we have more in common than music. Thank you for coming by my place.
The ocean is such a panacea. I like the idea of going with the sea and not having it devour you. A sense of traveling to a place of calm and serenity. At least that's how I read it.Lovely work.
I know you have a wonderful place there in Naples to make music! So beautiful there. Thanks for linking and allowing me to read.

Steve,
You captured how I feel about God's love - how long, and wide and deep it really is.....
And where`s that happy place?
I´d like to go... Can the sea take us there? Because Im planning to visit him very soon.
;)
The beginning totally drew me in. It was amazing!!
The sea has lots of mysteries, doesn't it?
steve, these words are just magical, you are such a fantastic writer and the words do conjure up the romance of the sea... and this photo is gorgeous..i will go see the peeps there:)
xox

Quite evocative a mood you've created. Nice one-shot.
This is beautiful. You chose a perfect picture for this. Nicely done.
"and begin to drag me in"

i like the photo and ofcoarse the poem. Great one shot!lol..
thanks for visiting my site
Don't we all want to find that place of peace?
Beautiful pic too
Forgiveness is always part of it. I like the cadence of "Gazing at the water's swirl/I see paths of the world..."
I see you
Underwater,
flying above,
inside,
between...
I wait for you
to
send me an angel
Regards
beautiful Mr. Roni!
I don’t know your name but I know you are from the sea.
I can see the scales of fish reflected in your eyes.
Lovely words.

I love the pairing of the photo with the poem. A beautiful image of love.
the photo was a great start to a wonderfully written poem...thanks for sharing with one shot...pete
So nice!
I could sit by the sea and watch it forever.
What a wonderful poem and a most enticing picture to go with it. I am lured by the waves, rolling in and out.
This very powerful and moving. Great One Shot.
I love the beckoning of your poem. It is powerful and compelling. Just like the one who makes the call.
Nice One Shot
