#wave poem

[tasty-cilantro]

Picture a wave. In the ocean.

You can see it, measure it, its height, the way the sunlight refracts when it passes through.

And it's there.

And you can see it, you know what it is. It's a wave.

And then it crashes in the shore, and it's gone.

But the water is still there.

The wave was just a different way for the water to be, for a little while.

You know it's one conception of death for Buddhists:

The wave returns to the ocean, where it came from, and where it's supposed to be.

Been struggling with my physical health recently so decided to get back into poetry writing to lift my spirits. Have attached a black and white copy on the 2nd page, enjoy 🌊

I could never ride a wave

because I couldn't stand

up on a surfboard. I tried

until I reached the age of

twenty five, then I learnt

how to scuba dive.

Wave Forever crashing against the shore What a sight to see What a beauty to hold But the storm is strong and no one goes near. Calm waters but suddenly a wave. Beauty of the sunset over the horizon. Dark and pure Deep and mysterious. She faces the world head on . The ocean crashes the shore head on She is the ocean The ocean is in her She breathes the salt air And her hair curls around the edges She is the wave.

Waves take me in,

crush me with your weight

Fill my lungs with water

Let me change my fate
