Ocean Glass

Ocean glass glints; smooth polished gems
of discarded debris that hems
in flotsam of dreams sharp as flints.
Smooth polished gems, ocean glass glints.

Soft crested wave kiss my bare feet
at edge when I hasten to meet,
counting on you to misbehave;                   
kiss my bare feet. Soft crested wave. 

At my lost dreams nostalgia glimpse 
as my chosen partner now limps
in my blighted shadow it seems.
Nostalgia glimpse at my lost dreams.

Golden threat seams for broken hearts,
notes to right wrong: song fit for Arts;
wisps of people’s forgotten dreams.
For broken hearts: golden threat seams.

Ocean glass dull, edges worn smooth
by experience borne of truth
out of our sight. Placebos lull.
Edges worn smooth: ‘ocean glass dull’.

Di11y Da11y Date: 6/7/2024 1:13:00 AM Interesting Suzette, I've not been able to get going on this prompt despite writing loads of this form about a year ago. Maybe your poem can help we take a wider look at subject matter. Good look with the contest x
