I stand on the wet sand <br />Of the vast ocean strand <br />Before me the waters roar <br />Like a charging wild boar <br /> <br />It is springing closer <br />As a cheetah after a deer <br />Sure it will subdue me <br />This hungry predator called the sea <br /> <br />But what wonder, it lay prostrate <br />Humbly kissing my feet <br />With awe my whole being filled <br />And in my eyes tears welled <br /> <br />They ran down before I could restrain <br />Mingling with the mighty ocean <br />Thus it moves carrying a speck of me <br />In its stirring bosom till the end of time <br /> <br />Lo, how I am now in motion <br />As part of the mighty ocean!<br /><br />Valsa George<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/on-the-ocean-strand/
