Edward Mccall Poet Free verse

The Angry Ocean

Whitecaps grow larger at the shore
Swells on the open ocean
Toss merchant ships to and fro
 As the Sea exerts its dominance

The apathy of the ocean
Is evident
It's towering waves crash violently
Into the face of the shore
 Eroding its existence

 Frightening yet enchanting 
That is the paradox of the 
angry ocean
