Coming Back to Life - a photo on Flickriver

“Where were you when I was burned and broken ?
While the days slipped by from my window watching
Where were you when I was hurt and helpless...

I took a heavenly ride through our silence
I knew the moment had arrived
For killing the past and Coming Back to Life

I took a heavenly ride through our silence
I knew the waiting had begun
And headed straight..into the shining sun”
(My edit)

~I often use the symbolism of this Life Guard
Stand as a beacon of Hope. I watched this
structure struggling against the tides and winds
of 3 major Hurricanes and countless Nor’easters.
The worst problem for this beautiful wooden
structure has been when troubles have come
to this beach in St Augustine. This Stand is left
to endure the ravages of Nature alone. But
somehow when houses, the beach and dunes
were devastated, the ol’ Life Guard Stand has
made it through and it came Back to Life !
This has always been an incredible inspiration
for me.
Somewhere in a parallel dream world of my
broken brain, I am this Life Guard Stand.
Or maybe a cork in the ocean, bobbing up and
down. A prisoner of the tides... But by the
providence of God, surviving to live another
day. Coming Back to Life ~Tom~

Much Love, Happy New Year
