The Deep Vs Shore
"Fear ye not me? Saith the Lord: will ye not tremble at my presence, which have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it?"
~Jeremiah 5:22 (THE HOLY BIBLE -KJV)
Sea waves froth & foam, seemingly uncontrolled
But sand bounds the ocean with its hold
Huge, mighty waves crash and creep
Hushing crushing sweep
Toss and roar
Deep
Vast seashore
O'er which cannot leap
Cannot prevail o'er sand heap
Watch them wage a war, action unfold
Sea waves froth & foam, seemingly uncontrolled
