Best Seashell Poems

As the tides slowly recede

Remnants left upon the shore

Reflecting beneath the sunlight

That bathes them now, from beyond the once obscure depths

Shimmering and glistening, souvenirs to soon be found and held

By the eager eyes of a childs tender hands

Whom shall rescue them, from their once solitude

No...

As the mercury soared above ninety degrees
    We piled in the car and headed to the sea
 It was dad, mom,  sister and me
    My sister was twelve, I was four years past three

 Once on the beach...

Hold a seashell to your ear...
Linger in it's tranquil tide,
breathe it's calming breezes here,
bring it's subtle strength inside

If you yearn for former times,
hold a seashell to your ear,
you'll return to warmer climes
and the ease of yesteryear

When you sense a tempest near,
if you would decrease the...

Conches scattered in shifting sands,
Ocean's painted art from high tide,
Caring not of past life inside.

Lovingly cupped in tiny hands,
A child of six years finds great joy.
Dirty hands bother not, this boy.

He lifts one to ear where he stands.
His bare toes dug in dampened silt,
Near sandcastle...

Sam, Sam the seashell man
Picks up shells in the soft white sand
Every day he walks the shore
Finding always more and more
Purple shells and pink and blue
Shells of nearly every hue
He walks the beach in morning light
And he walks again when nearly night
Little shells and pointed...

Seashell
I thought so strong,
broken beneath the waves,
will whisper of its ocean realm
no more....

Sea
Is full of majesty
Person picks up seashell from the sea
To listen to ballad of the sea

The duns are covered by sea holy 
The seashell song is of destiny
It unveils the soul of the sea
And persons own soul aches listening to its beauty

Above the sea sunset...

Skill kisses the sand,
a game with the ocean floor;
Each move confident;
The sea tumbles with shells,
High tide reveals a check mate....

Seashell
as I take shape
i lie here in wait 
the wind beating
upon my back
my image carved out 
by gritty sands of
life
i feel my grooves;
their hardness
i get smoothed over
by the warm sun
but  jagged edges
still remain
not as pristine as
when I began
i am swept up 
by the gentle...

collecting seashells
her deaf ears hear the whole joy

If you ever feel so completely empty

Close those eyes and think of me

Keep them shut and think of a place 

Picture us there together

Think of the ocean with the big blue waves, like walls holding everything together

Visualize us walking in the sand, running around admiring...

lazing by the shore
whispers flee from ebbing tides
winds howl in silence...

I've been stealing secrets
from this little conch
I nabbed from the sea
and sometimes
she whispers songs to me

Last night her melody
was full of sorrow
and the verses 
just yearned to go home
where creatures were familiar
until my grubby hands came along

Oh, they could not resist temptation
her spirit was so...

sweet seashell queen
just had surgery to remove a tumor off her brain stem
today she celebrates her 6th BirthDay
whatever she wants is the law of our world
i almost choke up thinking about how brave she was
hell, she gave me hope, encouragement, and inspiration
i tell her she...

The day shines like gems
Glistening in the sunlight
I feel rich today

I find a seashell
I listen for the ocean
The sea comes to me

Found the mother load
The gold mine was in her eyes
I'm rich forever......
