Reverie Poem by Nomad Omnia

Reverie

Rating: 3.1


He sees the greens,
The greys, the browns,
Of island life
transformed to black
Of gathering storm.
And through it all the gold
Of God, the faith
And love from which
New life was born.

Bright splashes then
Of summer days
Rock pools and seaweed
Crashing waves.
A swirl of panic
Soon allayed.
His mind drifts on
To other days.

Other beaches,
Other waves
Machair lands
With sacred graves...

He stops.

He knows it’s there,
His other life.

yes, we do seem to have another life, whether it's the past, a dream-future, or another dimension... beautifully said.....

Were it not for reverie, the poet would have no other life. We celebrate those moments we have kept in the landscapes of our minds. Beautiful write. Kind regards, Sandra
