Shores where life is thriving



Shores where life is thriving
Refresh us once again
Dunes where winds are blowing
That cleans its sands away
Grows eternal within its lines
Above the stars still shine

Where  active minds do dwell
And rest when need to rest

From the self in its remissions
Imparted shores within
We are one and whole again

Footsteps outward striving
Imprinted forms inform its living
Within the changeless change
Evades constrictions that define
Not alone within its social friction

Created by life’s contradictions
Outstretched arms reach out
to all that listen within
Soft lit light of lighted flames
Formed within its circle
