Watching the sea

Watching the sea, ebb and flow
Roaring in, flooding out
Almost breathing
Repeatedly

Never stopping, always moving
Racing in, flowing out
Wave after wave
Constantly

Depositing all its gifts
Rushing in, receding back
Along the shore line
Endlessly

Watching the ocean murmur
Crashing in, rumbling out
Forever moving
Unceasingly.



I love walking along the beach and seeing what it has deposited along the tide line.  The sounds of the water as it ebbs and flows constantly.  Breathing, living and liking the fact that it will always be there.
