The tide

Despite the sea being wild and the waves rolling away from the shore, the tide always returns. Katherine McIntyre

Shine me inside out

flow drop by drop

back to the sea

 

disappear into the wave

be a waxing face

my thoughts

are free

 

strew them off and back again

adorned with shelves of all kind

the sound of the water

brings them nearby

with a whisper

in my ear.

The sentiment reflected a poem I read years ago,"Song of the Chattahoochie" by Sidney Lanier. All water returns and returns again.

Must read it once, thanks for the kind words. :)
