Poem73.Happy To Call It A Dream

Happy To Call It A Dream

Walking, walking,
dreamily , calmly,
just going,
aimlessly.
 
Deserted area,
nearby calm sea,
wind blowing,
just walking.

Speeding cycle,
suddenly she saw,
at a distance,
and wished to call.

Thunder sudden;
made her turn,
what she saw,
made her churn.

The sea was rising,
eating the land,
eagerly coming,
to take her hand.

Wanted to shout,
no voice came out,
death, the thought,
strike her just.

Suffocation
lack of air
Struggling
Deep blackness.

Sudden shaking ,
heard him ask
"what happened"
realized, not dead.

Touch by hands of death,
shook me inside out,
Spared out this time;
so, happy to call it a dream.

Remembering the beautiful words of  Robert Frost
"The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep. "

Entering for Magpietales "Mag 91"  where we have to write a poem or short vignette using the picture featured as your inspiration.

I required to utter that it is huge to grasp that someone said this as I had problems finding the same writings somewhere else. Your subject was the foremost place that provided me the writings . Thanks for giving so much strength into this.

Before I go, permit me thank you for your tolerance with my English as (I am certain you have figured this at this time ,), English is not my mother language consequently I am using Google Translate to shape out what to jot down what I genuinely mean to articulate.
