Thrashed by waves
Suddenly
Submerged under the ocean
Near to the shore
Tasting salt
I’m fighting against the waves
A fight I can not win
Over and over I go
Scraping against coral
Trying to battle my way
Up
The ocean isn’t done with me
Yet
It pushes me back down
Rolling me back and forth
Upside Down
Right side Up
But I’m learning
Looking up I see
Bellies of the Waves
Relax Relax Relax
Surrender
Love Love Love
Pay Attention
Ebb and Flow
Surrender
Thank you’s
To the Ocean
For the Reminder
I’m tumbled onto
Shore
