Whhhhhhhhhhhwww...... <br /> <br />Wind rushing in my ears <br /> Roaring as if a lion stood on this beach <br /> These plains of sand its Serengheti <br /> Breathing heavy - all around me <br /> <br />The ocean rushing up to shore <br /> Rising tides on the slope of time <br /> Its beauty closer than the horizon <br /> Heaven and destiny containing the sea <br /> <br />Us, shells sheared by fierce elements <br /> Crunching below the rhythmic beat <br /> Searching for something in the deep <br /> These grains of sand I come to roam <br /> <br />Feeling like a wind blown dune <br /> Aboard a ship without mast or sail <br /> I give in and let the Lord prevail <br /> In my heart the man has grown <br /> <br />Wings glide through a Carolina blue sky <br /> As the sun begins to taper and set <br /> Dimming my tears placed there by the wind <br /> And the still waters tell me the day is gone. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Wrightsville Beach, August 20,2004 <br /> <br />Inspired by God's creation, the Alpha and Omega. His presence is in the sea, the rocks, the water and wind, in my heart, my soul, my mind and my pen.<br /><br />T. Alfred Norman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/wind-rushing-in-my-ears/
