Steady; Steady-

Steady; Steady-

Steady breathing; steady heaving—

Of the ocean’s waves

Steady sounding; steady pounding—

Against the dark sea caves

Steady rushing; steady gushing—

Of an endless salty haze

Steady moving; steady soothing—

In a sightless gaze

Steady crashing; steady bashing—

On the sand every day!

Steady grinding; steady reminding—

Victims of the Sea’s rage

Steady streaming; steady screaming—

From a drowning heart that’s razed!

Steady gasping; steady rasping….

A single shell left on a shore

Empty—

It is no more!

Steady beauty; steady forever—

Steady– but no more!

Steady breathing; steady heaving—

Of the Ocean’s waves

Steady, Sea! Steady!

Until the end of days—
