It Lifts, Defies Gravity

It Lifts, Defies Gravity 

That great curving line
made of countless droplets
in shades of aquamarine
to showers of foaming white

it creates an opening
a cave where light can spin
then plummets down again
its passion has been spent

rolling gently to the shore
tumbling sand and shells
small remnant lives
then going back for more.

I like this image of the wave going back for more and playing with antigravity caves. It's a totally different perspective than most thoughts on waves at the sea, amid the beauty it creates. J :)
