Tomorrow is Another Day

 

Let me be in paradise.

Let me be there.

Sun beating down on my naked skin.

Breathing in the fresh air.

To hear the ocean lapping

upon the golden sand.

To feel totally at peace

in this never never land.

To smell the beautiful fragrance

of the brilliant coloured flowers.

To sit and look out to sea

for hours and hours and hours.

To listen to the song birds

sing their lul-a-bye.

And watch the big white sea gulls

soar into the sky.

To experience the sun set,

a yellow and orange sphere,

dance upon the ocean

until it disappears.

To slip into cool white sheets

and sleep the night away.

To wake well rested and relaxed

to start a brand new day.

Author notes

A very deep and meaningful poem that was born from the beautiful image and a feeling of reflection and sadness

    Sounds like a grand dream to me.
    May I dream it along with you ?

    Paradise is something that is very dear to my heart... each day is another challenge for me; trying to resist ending my life, and taking a shortcut to the paradise that my Lord has prepared for me...

    Each day is a fight, and I continue to fight on. What a beautiful picture you've painted. I Hope heaven is all this, and more.

    God bless you,
    Zach.

      thank you my friend. I feel this is probably one of my best to-date.
      Having a bit of writers block at the moment though. I'm sure I'll start writing again when my feelings are ready to put pen to paper once more.
      Thanks again

    I do like the reflection and longing in this piece, the repetition of the word "To" at the start of each thought really drives this home and emphasizes it for me.

    Good write.

    Such a beautiful poem capturing the fantasy of escaping to another place, a place of dreams in which the troubles of life do not exist.

    The use of simple images such as the sun, the ocean, flowers and song birds paints a vivid picture in the reader's mind, helping them to share the fantasy.

    Finally the poem closes with the slipping into cool sheets, mirroring the peace that the fantasy has brought upon the reader, ready to return to the real world refreshed.

    A very enjoyable poem, and one that could be often read when those few moments of peace are needed in a stressful day.
