Ripples of Forgotten Dreams
In the silence of the setting sun, the wooden beams of the dock stand like the bones of forgotten days, worn yet steadfast. These timbers, once part of vibrant lives, now rest in stillness, guardians of memories too faint to recall but too sacred to release. The ropes, knotted and frayed, whisper of journeys past, of burdens borne with quiet grace—each fray a testament to dreams long set aside, once tied to ambitions that stretched across vast seas but now lay dormant, wrapped around weathered wood. Above the water, these pillars rise, grounded in the earth yet reaching towards the heavens—a bridge between worlds, a reflection of man’s spirit that once dreamed beyond the horizon but now holds fast to the earth, awaiting the winds of hope to stir again.
Beneath, the water dances in harmony with the light, bending and shifting, as if it too seeks to tell the story of forgotten dreams. Its movement echoes the aspirations once cast upon the tide, ripples of longing carried away by the currents of time. The golden light kisses the dock’s weathered wood, transforming its rough surface into a tapestry of warmth, as though the dreams of old have not truly faded but linger in the light, waiting to be reignited. Each ripple is a luminous thread, weaving a fabric of existence where dreams, though momentarily stilled, are not lost but woven into the essence of the present.The dock, standing strong amidst the passage of time, cradles these forgotten dreams like secrets whispered to the wind, waiting for the day when the tide of memory will rise again, and the dreams that were once cast away will be reborn with the breaking dawn.
