Lovely Luminescence--By Arthur Turfa--United States

Lovely Luminescence

Striding along the shore

moving in thalassic beauty,

her splendor resembles

oceans whence she came.

Her smile catches the sun

reflecting radiance

the horizon round

bringing landscape and sea aglow.

Sun-drenched hair cascades

down over shoulders

touching necklace

of amber stones linked in golden strands.

All that one can do is to simply bask

In that splendor and linger

In lovely luminescence.
