The Ocean Calls

The sound of the ocean calls

As its creatures gather

To hear the mighty roar

Softly playing within

Only a whisper crashing

Among the white capped waves

Complicated

Like a dictionary
With too many
Interpretations, always
Searching for the
Perfect word
A lexicon
So many choices
And none the
Right identity
You’re an enigma
Intricate, perplexing
Turning the pages
Of an unwritten book
Reaching for tomorrow
Forgetting yesterday

Jumbled

Tags

, , , , ,

Cluttered with words
That don’t make sense
No space in my head to expand
Jumbled art, falling apart
Trying hard to understand

The letters clump
One on one
It’s getting harder to decipher
Slithering around , hissing profound
About to strike like a poisonous viper

Then the clearing begins
As I sort it all out
Finding time to slowly subdue it
Quietly thinking, words finally shrinking
Til someone decides to add to it

Streaking downward

Never touching ground

Ice crystal clouds

Over desert plains

Across the heavens

Paint the sky

Thunder

thunderstorm-501914_960_720Clouds come together

In a battle of power

Colliding, one into the other

Clashing, crashing

A calamitous clamor

Like a toddler

Incessantly banging a drum

The rhythm of beautiful noise
