Beyond the Breakers
The curling waves approach each shore from sea
To meet their journeys end with crests of white
Their crashing sounds release a loud decree
And wash a foam on rocks with water's might
To cause a rainbow's mist along the shoal
To be seen above brown and jagged shores
In timeless colors that can free a soul
As the glistening waters fill contours
I'll watch each rolling wave begin to climb
Beyond shorelines where hardened rocks emerge
To free their building power over time
Then rush the rocky shores in final surge
To allow eyes to see and comprehend
Bubbling cauldrons at the ocean's end
