Seaside


Seaside 

by R. Neest


The two old friends met early, before noon, 

They had a lot to talk about all things 

That happened since they saw each other here, 

Where always was like their cosy home. 


On long and brownish wooden chairs they sit 

Immersed in deep and tender mat of grass. 

Few red and yellow flowers grew apart 

Below an old and leafy branch of tree. 


In front they have the blue and noisy sea 

With waves that crush on heavy row of stones 

And fishing boats that move away from shore 

While several hungry seagulls fly around. 


They watch the rising sun above the sea 

As slips through white and various shapes of clouds 

And gently warms the air and things around 

Preparing for a new and busy day.

Waiting

Waiting  by Robert Neest A tall and wooden window’s open wide  And lets the early summer sunshine slip  Inside the dimly lit and narrow room  And draw few feeble shadows on the walls.  Beside the window stands a girl and looks  Towards a very distant place, away  From where she stays with shoulders brought in front  While arms are tightly held around her waist.  She wears a lively coloured graceful dress  With stylish shoes that are her favourite pair  And light shines on her nicely done hair  To make her look so beautiful and young.  With trembling hands she reads again the message,  As she has done since she received the news,  When several tears are falling from her eyes  And then are slowly rolling down her face.

A Dream

A Dream by Robert Neest The son of young and working man and wife A two-year-old boy lived in a small flat, Inside a basement of a building was What they could pay from their modest wage. The parents left the place that they were born And went away from their home and friends, Were forced by lack of chances to build up A decent life for their family. Arrived in a new country they were firm In their will to strive for a new life And get for their son what they had not, To grow with hope of better days ahead. O ne night , a storm was hitting their town And massive floods were reaching their street, A brutal burst inside the place they were And died the m o ther, father and the son.

The Waves of Life

The Waves of Life by Robert Neest A child is born, a new and different soul Who enters into changing waves of life That carry him from birth until his death Through sorrow, joy, despair and happiness. The childhood starts as blessing and great joy For caring parents that are nurturing Before emerging in the cruel world Where people always want what others have. As growing up, the goals are aiming high At fame and glory, being known around, And money, riches, to dispose at will, The happiness to own more than the rest. At last, the waves of life are reaching shore, To spread across when hitting the firm ground And then are going back into the sea Becoming parts of new tides that arise.
