Beyond the Breakers
Upon a rock I stood
And pondered on the sea,
Stretching way beyond the breakers
Out to infinity.
I looked to the horizon
Where the water met the sky,
From my rock I realised
How insignificant was I.
Above my head seagulls called,
In haunting melody.
Echoing in an empty sky,
As I pondered on the sea.
