The water calls for words to be shared.

My lips are sealed, for I shall never forsake my secrets.

The sand dunes complement the water, and

I shall never fear or fret.

© Piper C., Roswell, GA

The author's comments:

I am an insatiable reader and a prolific writer. A few months ago, I started to lose my confidence. One day at the beach, I realized how beautiful and sublime this world is and I wrote this poem.
