Waves crashing, eyes flailing I look
out to see,
The power coursing through the seas.
It never stops to astonish me,
The decisive nature of the tide.
We watch in silence and look
out at the seas,
Hoping for a warm greeting to
lap at our feet
But the surge of waves never
stop in greeting
Their emotions are as strong
as metal beams.
They ask not for love but give
in plenty.
But we humans know only to
destroy,
Love and pure beauty.
Love is extrinsic to our
nature,
So much so that we feel the
need to
Destroy our givers,
The ones who sustain our
existence.
But the sea, it
has astounding beauty.
It does not love so it expects
not to receive,
It does not ask for aid to
sustain its family.
It still gives and it teaches
us too,
To respect and care for our
family.
Each wave has different meanings.
The sea has its high and
its low,
but it never bottles up
its feelings.
Power and strength are what
the sea teaches me.
It does not have disdain for
our ways
But compassion that guides my
journey.
