Morning Waves


The ocean has been in my blood since my dad taught me to surf.

To relax I imagine crashing waves

hear the melody of the tumble of water

Here is a wave that first emerged a few months back.

Like the tides it came, crashed, and collapsed back to the mind.

Tonight, maybe due to the moon, the tide ebbed to the forefront

I took down the old wave from the living room wall

Pulled out paints and brushes, closed my eyes, and looked for

the crashing of water, the new tide, the new wave.
