waves to come . . .

[Bill]

waves to come

the sound of the endless waves
rushing upon the shore
brings me to my realization
that i am so much more

we often seek to define our lives
as we take a purposeful stance
what we so innocently limit
lessens our chance to enhance

though i am but a small part of
all that exists and is to be
i know that i am connected
i feel the waves within me

i look out upon the horizon
and ‘tis no end in sight
and i embrace “time’s” Holy suspense
for i live each day, each night

for i am the wave that is endless
exponential has no sum
i can not be bottled nor defined
as i listen for the waves to come
