This 5-7-5 about nature, Seashore and Sunset, reminds us that the world is huge and fully capable of providing all we need. This includes a sedative to make the soul restful. Nice poem.

Very nicely composed with gentle theme pairing sunset with lullabies and night. Speaks of nature's connection between the seas, the sun, the night, and the natural need to sleep. Very well done.

Good pun on sandman. Good word economy. Good alliteration and consonance of S. Good imagery. Good flow, though I would have liked it better if the first two lines were linked, like haiku. True to form 5-7-5. Good luck in the contest.

Good job!

Warmly, rd

Hello,

I am with your, I love tranquility of the beach at sunset. I love the way it calms me down and grounds me to earth. All my troubles seem to disappear. Well done, you did an awesome job.

I agree, Mystery Poet
There are few places on earth where we as human beings feel less significant in the grand scheme of things than when we are standing on a beach looking out over the horizon at the vastness of the sea.
Best of luck to you in the contest.

A very well-written nature 5-7-5 poem. Yes, it seems the sunset at the Beach front always have a special magic unexplainable.

Poet,

I love your 5-7-5 nature entry. When I read your
title and description, I had to hope on to read
right away...my favorite subject...(I think)

You did a terrific job on this. Lovely imagery,
nice alliteration in first line and cool, sator-like
last line.

Linda

All three of these lines paints a perfect picture and different aspect of nature. Each one is somber and as you say displays a sense of tranquility. Good idea to combine them all.

Well done.
