Sand and Sea

Rhan Sterling Henry

And lo of that wave riven coast
That bounding sea who cries here most
On wind tossed shores where teardrops sown
Yearn to make their passions known
Forever clasped with lover with foe
Whereon? Only the horizon knows
Forever onward hand in hand
Wave tossed sea and battered strand
Face to face they lie
Murmuring their sad goodbyes
Tumultuous wave to scarred shoreline
Their bond no auger can divine
No mortal eye nor wind perceives
Wither that eternal embrace may cleave
For here hath to each other waged
A covenant to span the age

    Very nicely written this takes the wild beauty of the coastline and in its battle forges a union and pact that is eternal. A wonderful metaphor that goes deep. A fave
