A Raging Sea

Folder: 
New Work

Waves lap at my feet

Sand between my toes

Looking out into the never ending sea

 

A storm is coming

The waves are rising

Crashing against the cliffs

Crashing into me

 

I fall

Tumbling and flipping

Trying to catch my breath

I hit a wall

I sink further and further under

Lungs burning

Desperate for air

 

I feel a rock at my feet

I push up

I break the surface

I gasp and feel the air flow through my lungs

 

Climbing to higher ground

At the top of the cliff

I rise to my feet in victory

As I see the rainbow on the horizon

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I love the ocean and the many metaphors you can use with it.
