Wednesday Wake Up ~Oceans of Creativity @NWCreativeUnion


We're waking up on the beach today over at The New World Creative Union's Wednesday Wake-Up Call and I'm hoping to inspire your pens, brushes, cameras...whatever medium you choose to express your response.  Listen to the sounds of the sea, see one of the World's most famous lighthouses, and see if you don't get the rush that comes with the scent and feel of an untamed salt water breeze.  Mr.Linky awaits YOUR response :)  Hope to see you there!

High ~ Tide

Each crest of frothy wave
delivers the trash of chaos and indifference.
Once washed away,
too easy to forget
the opposite shore
lays in wait
for man's next great blessing.

Ironic
that the black blood
bled from her very core
should be manipulated
into a fresh water bold faced lie
as it bobs along the currents
forever and a day.

Nicely presented poem along with image/poem-composite! What else can I say? You've composed a beautifully created work for our Wednesday Wake-Up Call!

ugh....makes me think of all the stuff from japan last year showing up on our beaches, but even further the destruction of the oil spill in the gulf...we really care little for our enviroment and it will come back to haunt us i fear...

two very good pieces Tash, I just love how the words mesh so perfectly with the child and the shoreline there. Thanks

Wonderful expression of the ocean's pull and the visual presentation is beautiful.
Great - felt the pull of the ocean here. Excellent.

The pristine shores of our youth are not so clean anymore. Thoughtful poem and excellent composite with the photo, Natasha.
