Empty Shells
billowing shores
the echo…
in empty shells

Yes I can hear the soft mysterious sounds.
Glad you can. Thanks so 🙂
i love this precious offering…with it comes the reassurance that memories are kept in unexpected places and can be comfort over and over and over again, thank you for this song of the sea!
My pleasure, Rebecca. And there is profound truth in your words. 🙂
Celestine. Thanks for dropping by my blog. I love your new photo. You are beautiful. I can hear those shells. My love for ocean beaches and the drift that accumulates on them will never leave me. I think I will take it into eternity with me.
What lovely words, Kathy. And thanks so much for the compliment. 🙂
🙂
LOVE it. As a child I used to love to hear the soft roar of the ocean inside a shell.
How nice. 🙂
This poem makes me see French coast lines and makes me smell the sea… love it!
How lovely. 🙂 Glad this resonates. 🙂
Lovely haiku! There’s something delightful about walking along a beach, finding a shell, and holding it up to your ear to listen, listen, listen.
You know it sister. 🙂
So much beauty in so few words. Lovely, Celestine.
Many thanks Diana. 🙂
Lovely!
Many thanks, Madhuri 🙂
One of my favorite things in all the world… to listen to the messages in those empty shells…
And that can be so soothing. 🙂
Congratulations on your second poetry collection, Celestine!! I managed to read bits that were open to review. I hadn’t heard of the Cherita until I saw this book of yours. Interesting!
I still love your haiku more, though. The imagery is always so vivid and striking — exactly my cup of tea!:D
Than you so much Risa. Glad you came over and thanks for the comments. I agree that the haiku are so striking but you would love the cherita too for its simplicity and profoundness. 🙂
The echo of emptiness or whisper of water nymphs? 🙂
More like echo of emptiness my dear 🙂
…sigh…
Hope you feel ‘fuller’ soon.
Luv the sound appeal here.
A happy Sunday to you.
Much🤗love
Thank you Gillena. 🙂
I can relate because I love the ocean!
Glad to hear this sis. 🙂
