WAVES CONTINUE THEIR MARCH
Waves continue their march
Toward the shore
Towering ships cut through
The prow slicing irresistible force
Directing it at a slight angle
Backed by immense mass
I await the arrival of a son
Who is almost as irresistible
As the sailboats follow
Like seagulls after sloppy child
Drifting their aimless hulls
Envious of the ships long voyage
Just commencing
Yet real every day
Capture the peace of the sun
It beams strength and warmth
You become numb
Worries of finality approaching
Don’t catch you full force
Slightly angled off course
Like the prow of consciousness
Which allows us to see
How similar we are
And how connected in reality
Until the ship passes
The sea closes in behind
Just as before
Waves rejoin in mutual activity
Heading on
As each sail boat bobs and weaves
Its own path
Seeking relief
