Ocean patience

To wait for a fish

To take the hook

to watch the tides

Rise and recede

Ocean patience

To follow the journey

Of the sun

And to be dazzled

By an infinity

Of sparkling fires

Ocean patience

To hear the rolling waves

And feel the sand

Disappear beneath one's feet

Ocean patience

To stare entranced

Blinded in every direction

Deafened by the noiseless surf

Numbed by the sun rays

And cooling breezes

Ocean patience

To wait for the seaweed

To settle upon the shore

And for the pounding surf

To carve away the shifting sands

The surfers flock together

Like flocking crows

Waiting for the right moment

That promising swell

Out beyond the joggers

And curious beech strollers

The pelicans and seagulls

Spouting whales and sand crabs

Jelly fish and sand crabs

the seas shells, smooth pebbles and driftwood

Coral, anemonie and starfish

Standing upon the edge of the mighty ocean

Who has caused a multitude of calamities

To share in the patience of a might eternity

Standing n the verge of a vast destiny

Reduced to most basic elements

Replenished in a tremendous reservoir

That engulfs and unites our earth

The patient return to primitive states.
