Alone (But Not Lonely) On A Boardwalk Poem by D.N. Rebb

Have you ever danced along the boardwalk?
The path that no one owns yet all crave
Where planks have morphed into the golden sand
Harmless secrets lone shared with the waves

It's always windy, down at the shoreline
A way of life, this old route regards
The spirits of yesterday still reside
Propelled by the light of faintest stars

There's a Ferris wheel spinning distantly
Souvenir postcards lost in the breeze
Little youngsters with melted soft-serve cones
Skint teenagers selling cold iced tea

Sunday morning church bells echoing peace
Gospel truth or foregone conclusion?
Pay no attention ‘cause days of yore lie
On this boardwalk, you are solely one
