May the sea roar and all it contains, the world and those who dwell in it. — Psalm 98:7

I saw this picture
of the sea,
the saturated sand,
the gray, salt-mist,
the line of foam
from the fallen
crest, and some
deep need
to walk out into
that cold water spray
that tingles our lips
and cheeks
broke open in me,
pushed at the elemental
edges of spirit, tugging
my soul-need for that roar
of quiet.
