WATCHING THE HORIZON
Early morning with my feet sinking in the sand, I stand,
A breeze swirling around me as I gaze upon the waves.
The sound of them crashing on the beach is quite peaceful,
Water makes its way swiftly up to my waiting feet.
The sun rises from the dark to see the day, I watch as the light shines,
Watching the horizon line as it separates the now from the other side.
There’s a whole new world out there beyond what is seen in front of me,
Amazing as below the moving waters lives a world like no other.
Creatures of number travel and exist together beneath what we know,
Still, a mystery is the ocean floor, I stand here in the sand in amazement.
Watching the horizon takes me away to many places I’ve not yet seen.
