First Day Poem

Today I sat and watched the beach
The sand, the waves were close in reach
This gift is mine, this gorgeous view
It stimulates my mind to spew
Express my joy by writing verse
The rhymes just flow with no rehearse

But what if joy sometimes eludes
If sadness in my heart intrudes
Then too must I reflect through verse
'Twill soon soothe, dispel the curse
Restore the calm and peace will bring
Once more then my heart will sing

Daily odes to track the turns
Reflect on life, delights, concerns
Events, loved ones, new friends and old
Things long past, some shy, some bold
Verses for my life and love
For those below and God above
