Tide and Wind

To stand among the random winds

And send iron tones.

The sea would send its water tongues

To talk among the rocks.

In starlight, I could see

The sea creatures smiling.

And in winter watch the thickened spray

Shatter and sun-jewel.

Through fogs warm mantle I would toll,

Listening for your voice

In gulls’ cryings.

In dark I’d search for you,

With my golden eyes.

And wait each seasons day,

For Seachange..and Windturn…
