Wave Runner

Perched on point of rocky beach, Leaning into salty wind I reach. Stretching my being's limited cry, Ring out wild bells to the wild sky! With my soul these waves pound and scream, Surging, splashing, crashing, against a dream, Let the Heavens know my spirit's nigh, Ring out wild bells to the wild sky! Reach out beyond the blackened cloud, Covering my stars with ripping shroud,, Peal asunder fate’s hopeless sigh. Ring out wild bells to the wild sky! My spirit surges on tide and wave, Foaming 'round rocks of dreams I crave, Pealing, appealing, He will hear us by and by. Ring out wild bells to the wild sky. For Contest sponsored by Dr. Ram Mehta

Thanks for supporting my contest, but the refrain should be either the second or fourth line of each quatrain. Robert
