The Waves And Shore

As I walked along the shore
The waves washed over my feet
Just ahead lay a twig
I picked it up and kept walking

As I got closer to the Pier
The Moon cast a light shadow
I stooped down and with the stick
I wrote I love you with a heart

It seems the waves just
Couldn't quite reach my letters
So if there aren't many shore walkers
My heart's call to you remains

Can you hear my heart calling
Do you know I care
My heart beats ever true dear
Come and share my life with me

Author notes

I read the rules. It is so very hard to write free verse as I usually write in rhyme.

    you could have rhymed you know. But none the less it was a beautiful poem. Even though it didn't rhyme it stilled flowed wonderfully. Thanks for following the rules.

    Good luck!
