So constant is the ocean,
rising and falling back in rhythum. Momentum builds to a thrashing, crashing of waves crescendo.

Incandescent pirroettes of sunlight stream underneath, with courage biting strong in the little beams hearts, pushing through. A sunset, picturesque and serene, spills brilliant shades across the vibrant aquamarine.

So content is the ocean with her ever constant cycle of being.

The ocean is not unlike ourselves, rising and falling on occasion.

Humanity can learn from the ocean, her constant rhythm of rising high and crashing low. The tides will rise and recede and remain continuing the same.

We are constant, too.

      Thank you !!!! Sometimes I have these days where it just comes to me and I’m like ^-^ *yes* jumping up and down with excitement and other days, I can’t concentrate on one thought at a time lol- sometimes those are the days my writing can surprise me. This poem was written on one of those days. Thank you for noticing the flow. I keep trying to transcend to getting comfortable in all forms of writing. It drives me crazy when something I write sounds too much like something else I’ve already written. I know we all have our styles but I can never just stick with one lol .

        Yup, I know what you mean. Some poems want to be written, other ones fight you all the way. Kudos for sticking it out, definitely worth it. 🙂
