ocean's breath cascading
waves restless in their search,
beauty's glance parading
no matter where I lurch.
distant lands approaching
yet the shore remains unreached,
sorrow's glance encroaching
despite the mercy preached.
hazy clouds are forming
removed from the daily crush,
promise glance promoting
disregarded by my rush.
searching sandy beaches
eyes closed to love's first claim,
nature's glance teaches
still my landscape gets the blame.
delight begins decreasing
ugly stain of pride's curse,
rustic glance releasing
pain hidden in my verse...
rugged cross restoring
blessing's claim not left to chance,
grace's gaze romancing
true love, much more than a glance.
