Phyllis Babcock Poet Rhyme

Waves

Forever relentless
always receding

With all it's power 
pushes hour after hour

Unending sounds
carried on the wind

Rolling in rhythmic beat
Pounding beneath the feet

It rolls in like thunder
Then rolls back under

Life resembles the waves
Times of lull and then explosions.
