Poem by Tamikio L. Dooley - Waves by the Lighthouse by the Sea
Moderator 
TAMIKIO L. DOOLEY
Waves by the lighthouse by the sea,
they crash upon the seashore,
leaving twinkles of snow, chiffon,
daisy, powder, and porcelain memories.
Cobalt, sapphire,
and arctic icy shades shimmer
behind the twinkling water.
Near- the lighthouse,
the waves show the sea’s strength.
And empower the man confronting it,
dressed in a short wool coat,
fisherman’s hat, and boots,
carrying a stick.
Upon gazing at the waves,
they crash even closer to the shore,
almost as if they are reaching out toward
the man and grabbing his boots.
Amidst global misery and animosity,
he waits at the shore’s edge,
abandoned, yearning for the sea’s embrace.
