With Each New Wave
God who I know is always is benevolent
Can tell me in heaven what is equivalent
To great wave I recently rode to shore
Disappearing and no longer here anymore.
New wave powerfully pounding into sand
Which by God had been perfectly planned
So that another could follow close behind
And to ride new one in crossed my mind.
Even if I am not on top of wave at all
Will end up on beach and land and fall
Sometimes may be with a mighty roar
Ocean and it will find hard to ignore.
Sun started setting on each shining wave
On ocean surfing my mind became a slave
At home thought of surfing is still tempting
Maybe whole family I should start bringing.
