Singing Sea
Do you hear the sea song?
Wordless is the singing sea,
Symphony of passing time,
Chorus of sand, shingle and rock,
Augmented in avian cry,
Echoes back from cliff,
The grassy sheep song blending,
Rejoices from wild flowered turf.
Do you hear the sea song?
Wordless is the singing sea.
In winter storm, equinox tides,
Balm dressed summer days,
Autumnal migrant filled dawns,
Alighting flocks in morsel rummage,
Rich bounty for tired wings awaits,
Refreshed strandline detritus abode beckons,
Sand hopper clicks confirm their foraging,
Urgently energetic their sand combing,
Do you hear the sea song?
Wordless is the singing sea.
Pause take time, stand silent awhile,
Commit to memory these moments,
Hear hope of the wonder filled heart,
A lasting joy of the singing sea.
