The oceans boom
Reverberates
Inside the room
As the waves pound
Onto the shore
Finding their doom
Water moving silently
Towards the shore
Slowly building to rolling peaks
Before foaming
Rolling forward
Breaking along the beach
Ceaselessly
The ocean follows its path
Back and forth
To the eternal pull
Of something even mightier than itself
What I hear you ask
Why none other than
The glorious moon
Shining forth her delightful bloom
Mysterious and enchanting
Ocean breaking moonbeams
Moon slicing ocean waves
Cohabiting in spiritual splendour
Majestic, wild and free.
Golden sunset over the ocean
“The sea is emotion incarnate. It loves, hates, and weeps. It defies all attempts to capture it with words and rejects all shackles. No matter what you say about it, there is always that which you can’t.”
― Christopher Paolini, Eragon
“The moon does not fight. It attacks no one. It does not worry. It does not try to crush others. It keeps to its course, but by its very nature, it gently influences. What other body could pull an entire ocean from shore to shore? The moon is faithful to its nature and its power is never diminished.”
― Deng Ming-Dao, Everyday Tao: Living with Balance and Harmony
