Where June's Heart Sways

- Answering the Sea's Timeless Call

By Dawnxisoul393artPublished 3 days ago 2 min read

June's poem, once filled with sentiment and grace

For the sea, it knows your heart, your restless soul

Yearning for the boundless, the world to extol

The sea, its eternal call, whispers your name

Beckoning you forth, to a world beyond the tame

Its waves, ebbing and flowing, a rhythmic refrain

Luring your soul, to its boundless domain

The tides, they come and they go, without cease

June, once a poem, so sentimental and fair

The sun, it rises in the east, sets in the west

Yet we watched, mesmerized, the clouds' dance, their best

All afternoon, on the beach, the rocks bore witness

To a beauty that fades, as the daylight dims

But now, as the night falls, and all lights are out

The sea, it stands alone, its lamp aglow, no doubt

Why does it shine, when all else is dark?

Is it a beacon, calling you back to its mark?

For the sea, it knows your true name, your destiny

Whispered in the waves, for your heart to see

It calls you to return, to its endless expanse

To embrace the freedom, the eternal dance

Yet, as you gaze upon the shoreline, now bare

The footprints you left, a ghost in the air

The left, the afternoon's passing grace

The right, the dusk's embrace

The tides, they have claimed them, erased their trace

Leaving only the memory, of a fleeting embrace

As the lamp in the night, the sea stands alone

Illuminating the path, to your rightful home

It beckons you forth, to its embrace, so true

Where your name, once lost, will finally be renewed

The clouds, they have danced, their beauty now gone

But the sea, it remains, its light ever-shining on

For it knows, that your spirit, it cannot be tamed

Destined to roam, your true self, forever reclaimed

Heed the sea's call, let it guide you away

From the confines of land, to where you truly sway

For in its endless expanse, your soul will find peace

As you surrender to the waves, and your freedom, never cease

Postscript:

June's heart swings with the eternal rhythm of the sea. Through the interaction of light and shadow, day and night, this poem invites you to think about the transience of earthly existence and the eternal and ever-present magnificence of the sea. Faded footprints, dancing and disappearing clouds all remind us profoundly that the real essence of our existence is not a short moment, but an eternal rhythm that dominates the natural world. It is the sea that shines with an unshakable light in the dark, guiding us to find ourselves and find our true selves like a lighthouse. Listen to the call of the sea, surrender to the boundless sea, embrace the freedom waiting for us, because there, our souls will find the peace and rebirth they so deeply desire. The sea, with its eternal wisdom, knows our real name and destiny, and it calls us back to the source and the original essence of the core of our existence. In response to this call, we may finally find comfort and integrity far away from us, because we will always dance with the ebb and flow. Like June, let's respond to the call of the sea, go forward bravely, and embrace the infinite possibilities waiting for us in the vast and unknown waters of our self-discovery.
