The Wave – June 26, 2019

The slow melodic crest

~

Falling into froth.

~

Pulling Back out to sea,

Metronomically set to

Slow and steady.

~

Heaves again

~

Reaching higher

Crashing, tossing

Itself into a bubbly pool.

~

Sliding back to where it came.

~

Taking a layer of granular crystals,

~

Eating away

At what once was

At a pace

Ignored by the naked eye.

~

Giving and taking

~

Little treasures found

~

Buried

Underneath

The stratum.

~

The oceans story

~

Told by each wave

~

Hidden in plain sight,

Until the seeker

Comes looking.

~

Eyes wide open

~

Receiving the gift

~

Presented to them.
