A poem about how the waves of the ocean at night wash away the stress of the day. |
| Oceanic I’ve danced upon the oceanic waves Of despondency making faces at the moon. I’ve drowned in the sweltering air That rushes out with the fall of the sun. I’ve seen the shadowed gulls investigate Their late intruder dashing near and high And up out over off into an empty part. I’ve sat deep in the soothing monotony That washes away the troubles of the day With a pale moon salt-foam scrub In the cool solitude of the quiet nighttime air That waits in the swell of the sea To throw itself upon the shore In wave after wave of oceanic resplendency. |
