Perceptions from the shore

The beauty observed is deeply captivating

The shades of teal, cyan and dark turquoise gently flowing

The white foam rushing ferociously to the sand

A symphony of harmonious melodies

Entangled with the dramatic rush of waves

Personified beauty in its all-encompassing glory

Creating the appearance of being one with dense distant clouds

Yet this can never really be, its merely an illusion.

 

There is a story to be told, and a lesson to be learnt

The turmoil that is slowly brewing under the surface, presents its self in heavy tides

Smashing angrily towards the shoreline, in a desperate attempt to break free

Upon arrival at its destination, it breaks and dissipates, getting weaker

Then, there is a slow calm retreat to its source

It is drawn back blending in with the whole again

As it comes and goes there is never a constant state to the observer

Alas each moment, if only a moment, is actually its own to embrace.
