Question: Do all relationships have "Ebb and Flow"!?
Ebb and Flow

Lone palm stands on sandy shore
rallies to stay erect
despite harsh coastal winds

Waits as tide edges near
trusting water's touch
to be welcoming and true

Playfully sea and tree
splash in joined delight
as one with nature's harmony

Cruel rhythm then dictates
tide's fickle withdrawal, it
returns home into the sea

Lone palm stands, patiently
waits, just as I await
your endless ebb and flow!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Hi Ma,

I am sailing out on yon golden pond
sailing throughout the creative beyond

Long as I know you're anchored near the sea
I'll Always return & we'll sip tasty teasWww@QuestionHome@Com

The Maori warriors of Luzon drank a fermented palm tree sap concoction called Tuba!. They then charged into battle and could not be knocked down by the !.38 S&W!. That's when a smart officer thought of the Colt !.45!. A big, slow round with impact power, it might not kill them, but they were too drunk to get up!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

A lone palm cannot go and meet
The object of its affections
It can only wait patiently
In quiet introspection!.

Neither one is satisfied
In this mismatched love affair
One licking the feet of the other
One with its head in the air!.

I loved this!! for some reason this reminded me of- Celia Celia

When I am sad and weary,
When I think all hope has gone,
When I walk along High Holborn
I think of you with nothing on!.

All have ebb and flow, and for all the trying in the world, will always be so!. At least until the end, where all is a constant finale and then there is no more ebb or flow,Www@QuestionHome@Com
