Crashing to the beach,
as if distant thunder roar,
sending fans of whitewater,
streching,
far upon the fine black rock,
then,
the sea,
pulling into itself,
leaving a sheen upon the sand,
like a shadow,
mimecking the wave that there once laid,
before that shadow can fade away,
another crash,
a different wave,
always similar, never the same,
each a complete cycle unto itself,
yet never ending.
