Lonely Shore
I walk along the lonely shore
while seagulls soar
over the sea
away from me
Cold ocean waves splash o’er my feet
With each heartbeat
I yearn for you
My love is true
Saltwater tears course down my face
I’ll not replace
you in my heart
though we’re apart
For your return I often pray
and on that day
I’ll walk no more
this lonely shore

All I Have to Say 
Lovely minute poem! The form really lends itself to the lyrical type of poem.

Thank you, Jane. I love the minute poem. Short and sweet for people like me who are easily distracted.
