Mystery

Looking out across
the sea,a beautiful
sunset looking back at me.

Watching the waves 
as they come in,not 
being able to see them again.

A mystery I've found
within this write,
for you can't see the
same wave twice.

Wonderful image, Marie, and a wise observation: no two waves are alike, just as no two snowflakes. Best to you, Carolyn
