Reflection on the Beach


Let's dream of thee ocean,
far beyond the waves and chaos.
To remove all the hectic mishaps,
and enjoy the smooth sailing.
Great peace and delight when the moon is 
reflected on the dark water.
Silence among the great force,
for underneath there can be enormous stiring.
But if we rest on the top of the water,
staring at the stars-
now nothing can hurt us.  
Floating on silver stardust,
to lift me into the sky.
The misty clouds holding every tear,
that rained down into the mystic sea.
Returning to the unsettled waters-
where they will rise up and crash on the beaches.
If you walk with me there among the salty sprays,
kicking around the treasure of seashells-
there might be a moment of simplicity that this too shall pass.
