Sound Of Waves

Listen to the sound;
Of the crashing waves.
From the silken sea;
Into the coral caves.

Frothing and foaming;
Waves break ashore.
Colored brilliant blue;
Atop the seagulls soar.

The water is harmonious;
To the song of whales.
Searching deep within;
Recollecting old tales.

The sound of waves;
Rhythmic and slow.
Peaceful as a lullaby;
Diminishing our woes.

Now the waves rush;
To kiss our fortunes.
Sea of opportunities;
Alluring with options.

    Sanaa I like the many sounds you, build into this poem, From the screech of a gull, the crashing, the song of sea life below, and the whispered tones of lovers as they taste her salt (perhaps).
