Waves rolling
Across the sky...
Nudged & prodded & shaped by the wind;
Ushering in the morning light.
Waves crashing
In the form of time...
Rushing & slowing & passing me by;
Relentless, unchanging.
Waves lapping
At the shores of life...
Rhythms eternal in lessons we fight;
Persistently shaping.
Waves rising
From under the deep...
Surprising, upsetting, and tilting the vessel;
Yet calm waters will no skills teach.
Waves swelling
With destructive intent...
Swallowing those who attempt to conquer;
Arrogance drives us to death.
We cannot beat them,
We cannot stop them.
We can harness and utilize the waves;
Only together.
