Breakers on the Sea

    Like the waves of a storm-swept gray sea
       breakers rushing furiously toward me

    Thrashing recollections of what once was
       memories that will nevermore be

Nice one Gershon....the surf erases all memory of the beach, leaving it smooth and cold to await the artistry of a new day

Hello Gershon and these waves seem to come at night unfortunately. I enjoyed this short recollection. SuZ
