I wondered, solitary mind
That eyed the hues of sea and hill
Where into view came kindred kind
Lonely dream, moon's reflection still
Upon the shore, in shade of oaks
Silently, gently the waves broke
Sun rose, time's meandering way
Altered stillness of sheltered cove
Blissful bubbled froth late that day
As winds sang, and played tag above
Shimmering, shining the waves pranced
Mind's eye reveled in water's dance
Night fell, and ill winds grew stronger
Gales grew strident, dark storm arose
Carefree spirit played no longer
I wondered on this path I'd chose
Turned inward from lightning and rain
Surf's crash chorused, thunder's refrain
Morning broke, blessed calm returned
Weathered storm spent ,now receded
Cycles of nature, wisdom learned
Can be endured , not defeated
Stillness again, rythmic lapping
I closed my eye, resumed napping.
