MEDITATION

“Of water & spirit”

Face to face with

The ocean I stand;

In reverence – in awe

Of grandeur amplified:

Deep and wide………..

From pole to pole;

Wavy curtains shimmering bright

Horizons unknown unite earth and sky.

Tireless in her ebb and flow…

Mystical journeys to countless shores;

Weaving enchanted tales of

Tranquil breezes and capricious hurricanes-

I listen with intent-waiting my turn.

Softly I speak to the wailing wind

In silent codes……..

Deep unrehearsed cogent thoughts

I’d rather not share with you;

The ocean in refrain my way she sends

Missives tucked in the folds

Of cascading waves drifting hither and yon-

Like liquid dunes mounting assaults….

On ghostly crags keeping sentry countless ages;

Her white washed breakers explode in mystic rain,

Body and soul – drenched; anointed thus-

Salt crusted tears my spirit does purify.
