Sonnet: At the Beach 2
I wonder what the ocean can instruct
to those of us who seek an answer for
life’s mysteries or why we have been plucked
from here to there. One craves a metaphor.
Don’t look to me, I’m trudging through the sand
the same as you, no wisdom to impart.
I’m grateful holding to another’s hand
while figuring what’s what ‘fore we depart.
My take away is truly not so gloomy,
‘t is but a moment passing in this mood.
May I suggest some poetry by Rumi?
It might alleviate thy urge to brood.
With nature’s hidden lessons out of reach,
it’s not all fun and games here at the beach.
The tomato behind The Three Tomatoes.
Cheryl Benton, aka the “head tomato” is founder and publisher of The Three Tomatoes, a digital lifestyle magazine for “women who aren’t kids”. Having lived and worked for many years in New York City, the land of size zero twenty-somethings, she was truly starting to feel like an invisible woman. She created The Three Tomatoes just for the fun of it as the antidote for invisibility and sent it to 60 friends. Today she has thousands of friends and is chief cheerleader for smart, savvy women who want to live their lives fully at every age and every stage. She is the author of the novel, "Can You See Us Now?" and co-author of a humorous books of quips, "Martini Wisdom." Because she's lived a long time, her full bio won't fit here.
