Incoming Waves.

Goldfinch60



 

I stand on the sandy beach

Looking out over the sea

Wondering what is ahead.

The waves come in towards me,

The white caps of beauty

Showing me a new day in my life,

They fall back taking yesterday with them.

I look out further

At so many waves coming my way,

Knowing that there are many days to come,

To come in my life.

But looking further

There are so many more waves,

Showing that more days have passed,

Passed in my life

Than I have remaining.

But trying to count the incoming waves

Is impossible, showing so many good days ahead,

Good days in my future life.

      I love the metaphor here Andy. And may those days yet to come bring you all the joy your heart can hold. 😉
