Holiday on Bohol, Part 1: Peaceful Silence

The gentle stirring of the sea,
the shimmering surface of the water
    reflecting its green tinted sandy bottom.
Light sparkles from wave crests
    while far out boats silently drift along.
Just a touch of breeze drifts
    cooling the tropical air.
All around is silence, not a shout, not a cry,
    only the waves softly breaking nearby.
Oh what beauty! Oh what peace!

  1. It certainly looks (and sounds) idyllic! Such a contrast to the cities. Even inspired you to write poetry - watch out Steph - competition in the wings!!
