    About this ebook

    Our lives are like the tide, forever flowing in different directions, taking on different paths and shades based on varying circumstances that come upon them. Our lives are a forever changing of colors, just like the tide. As you dive into the pages of A Crimson Tide you will find yourself swimming through the various colors of our lives from nature’s beautiful palate, to red strokes of love and heartbreak, to the black veil that falls upon us when loved ones pass away from us, to darkening the pale where things become darker, deeper, philosophical, and psychological, where we battle with ourselves, and question our existence and our purpose in life.

      Nature’s Beautiful Palate

      There’s nothing quite like being surrounded by the beauty and intrigue of Mother Nature. It is exhilarating and refreshing. It takes me away from reality, lets me escape from all of the worries and problems upon me, and makes me relax and unwind. And even when Mother Nature attacks us in an unpleasant or deadly way, it makes things interesting and more adventurous…

      Not only do I love being surrounded by Mother Nature but I also enjoy writing about it a great deal. So in this section you will find poetry dedicated to Mother Nature…

      ~ Mother Nature ~

      September 1, 2012

      I want nature to surround me

      With its majestic beauty

      With every passing day

      That comes to me

      I will embrace it

      Welcome it

      With arms open wide

      For there is nothing better

      Nothing more unique

      Than Mother Nature

      ~ Presence Of Our Mothers ~

      August 23, 2011

      The morning breeze

      Like a mother’s touch

      Embraces me with comfort

      The birds’ echoing song

      Like an angelic lullaby

      Wafts in the air

      All reminders

      That our mothers are always present

      No matter where we are

      Or what we do

      ~ Clouds ~

      November 17, 2010

      Brush strokes filled with shades of white

      Glide across a baby blue canvas

      Painting a mural for all to see

      Let your imagination soar up to the heavens

      And open your heart and soul

      To the beauty and wonder

      Of Mother Nature’s artistic creation

      That comes to life on this glorious day

      ~ Snowy Days ~

      February 10, 2010

      Closing my eyes,

      I dive into the fluffy goodness

      And drift to a special place,

      Where I am a kid again

      Enjoying a life filled with wonder.

      It is on these days

      That the silence turns to a melody

      I yearn to hear;

      A melody that soothes my every core

      And brings with it eternal peace.

      ~ The Moon ~

      April 10, 2010

      A round ball of silver light

      Hangs overhead this darkened night

      Its shadow spreading all around

      Where life once roamed now can’t be found

      ~ The Sun ~

      April 6, 2010

      A round ball of yellow light

      Hangs up above where birds take flight

      It warms the soul, brings the smiles

      That last on faces all the while

      ~ Change Of The Season ~

      April 2, 2010

      The lonely tree, naked,

      Exposing bitter scars,

      Endured during nature’s months of hibernation,

      Awakens once more

      With new life.

      Harsh memories washed away

      By nature’s tears,

      By nature’s reawakening,

      As spring opens its vigorous arms,

      Covering everything with new life.

      ~ Busy Bee ~

      March 16, 2010

      When the sun wakes,

      The busy bee flies to work,

      Spreading his seed

      Wherever he lands.

      When the sun goes to bed,

      The busy bee flies home,

      His seeds blooming,

      Expanding into new life;

      A life that will give birth to another,

      Until all around lives again.

      ~ Lost Inside The Darkness ~

      January 19, 2010

      Awake at night,

      The pale moonlight,

      It beckons me to fly away

      Into the darkness of the day.

      I’m lost inside the mystery,

      Rewriting bits of history;

      The ones that faded with the day,

      To make my future be okay.

      ~ Comforted By The Cold ~

      January 19, 2010

      A huggable puppy,

      Red and white,

      Sits beside me

      On this cold night.

      But I won’t embrace it.

      I welcome the cold;
