You brought me
to this place once before
where water sends a message-
of life everlasting...
to my ears
It is continuous..
in its grandeur-
where the white caps crash
against the rocks...
and the crabs lay quietly
in their burrows
The gulls soar
among transcendent clouds
and they have no worries
about subsistence-
for it is always provided
I do not wish to leave this time
for I find a serenity in nature
My roots lie within
the candid entity of creation-
within the water's bosom...
