The Sea

Across the sea, across the sky

where waves reach out to bathe the sun

and light reflected paves the path

for all the ships that go and come.


The shadows roiling from beneath

suggest the forms in depths below

Whose solemn dances cross and crest

the currents as they ebb and flow.


The pull of endless tide that hauls

The lost and found back to the shore

And wears away the rocky banks

To sands of time and mystic lore.
