quatrain poem about the ocean's moods
Ocean Waves

|
On gusty days the roaring waves
dash hard against the shore --
by gale force winds they're called to crash
the sands they slash and score.
Adventurers and artists too
are drawn to stormy days,
when surf is up and pounds the rocks
in drama-filled displays.
But I prefer a calmer sea
with breakers held at bay --
where ocean only laps the beach
and surf is just a spray.
For I can on a tranquil coast
serenely take a stroll,
and quietly survey the depths
as placid waters roll.

Author Notes
Earlier today I reposted a poem from September entitled Silence, which also is about how nature can provide us a perfect inspiration and backdrop for reflection - I wrote this as a companion piece.
