Sea Solace

Seemingly serene,
waves whisper wild things.
Crush the sand,
bring deep sea treasures.
Water winds its way through my thoughts.

A sudden cry of discovery
A chalk pencil to turn a black pebble white
And ugly stones transformed into jewels.

Wending our way home with chatter,
a charity shop and books.
Spell broken
Crying now, unreconcilable.
Mistakes made and everything unravelled
Sea please return to me.
