Ocean Solace

Ocean Solace
by Linda Hoffman Kimball

Smooth
Shore,
Soothe
More
Bruised
Pride.
Use
Tide
For
Taking
More
Aching
Away
Today.

I love the sound of the tide on the shore. It must be one of the most ancient sounds on the planet. So primal and elemental.
I’ve got too much going on right now, and this little meditation gave me a restorative break from keeping track of all the things I have to do (one of which is writing a poem every day).
