Sea Rest From Labors

Dusky twilight foam.
Ever flowing nearing shore.
No more suffering.

You also found the description of the physical led inward. That surprised me in mine. I tried several lines that would continue the description of the photo, but nothing felt complete until I surrendered to the poem's calling. Yours is haunting, Marty. I see the photo in a completely new perspective now.
