The Sea. A sign of turbulence, wrath, and hindrance. But the obstacle presents a chance for growth, maturity, opportunity and majesty.

Water

The tide so rough

Rise high with each new storm

Stir each moment with the sound of

Thunder

The sea

Its watery face

Angry and discontent

Turns the life within it

Over

Icebergs

That form solid

in its dangerous waters

Block the paths of all who seek sun

Relief

Passing

The solid blocks

Vast expanse of water

So calm, unfettered, uncharted

Explore

They bring

One to the lands

Rich and teeming with lifeAn dwa.eSprawling with ultimate goodness

And awe.
