Rhythms of the Ocean

with the tide creeping in
freshening up all around
sea edging slowly inwards
making rhythmic sound

the ebb and flow of life
sets the rhythm of the day
controlled by the moon
that affects us in every way

at high tide all is submerged
lapping at the thick stone wall
until the tide slips away
revealing sea defences tall

as it slowly leaves our shores
debris is found on the sands
what`s the ocean left us today?
that we can turn with our hands

twice every day this occurs
through rhythms of the oceans
always stands the test of time
creating harmonic motions

Just love the ocean and is mesmerising sounds....
