Ephemeral Light
Alone with my thoughts by the seas front line
with the damp salty air caressing my mind
Sea grasses and molluscs cling to the rocks as waves from raging storms try to carry them off
The saltbush and samphire struggles to survive as the wind flattens and furrows their plight
Clinging for life it can only be seen that the contrast is stark but it seems so serene
While the mist blew through quenching the shore
I paused for a moment to absorb the roar
Close overhead a gull called to me
Soaring back and forth, my spirit animal maybe
With no explanation and unusual for me
a wave of emotion filled me with glee
As a tear chilled my cheek and fell to the ground
a connection was made that for years was not found
The connection omnipresent present and hard to define had punctuated the moment with feelings divine
No-one would understand the events of this time but no matter to me as it was'nt theirs it was mine
