MONUMENT of REFLECTIONS
(Elegiac Reflections)
There's uncertainty when future is bleak
With stoic weather and threatening storm.
The howling winds crash in peril, and, break
The surging ocean waves without conform.
Chaos followed after the storm pass by.
The aftermath laid, looked impossible.
Such epiphany of old days gone by.
Of elegiac memory I recall.
The sonorous call from the wind breeze takes -
Me to recollect that daunting past life
Of never ending struggles; I can't shake
Off my mind every time I witness strife.
The wanderer in me come home at last
Where peace is my abiding guide and light.
All fears and griefs I set aside and cast
In monument of reflections - I write.

Feedback
"Your poem is consistent in its melancholic theme of impending weather disaster that reminds you of a mournful past laden with difficulties and sadness. Then comes the realization that you are now at peace and have to cast all negativity in a MONUMENT OF REFLECTIONS. Note: I would write out the word "reflection" in its plural form with an 's' at the end." ~Mariquita Nosce Tandoc
"Evocation of a beautiful aura by the fusion of splendid words.
Marvelous ink đź–‹️" ~Hum Ale
