THE MUSIC OF THE SEA

 

 

THE MUSIC OF THE SEA

 

Hidden by embowering trees

the breaking waves ferocity

disclosed by sounds alone,

the music of the sea.

 

Soon in view by keenest vision

atop a steep acclivity

where cool reviving breezes blew

we stood in reverie.

 

And here relapsed in silence

entrapped by natures plea

on pathways unbeknown to us

we listened to the sea.
