Living Waters

Roaring voice of nature sings in the crashing waves,
Full might of her heart expressed through the dashing waves.

Despite their all encompassing thunder of din,
What wonderful peace is wrought by the clashing waves!

Nature's essence reified as living waters,
Her spirit flows in the sanative plashing waves.

Unparalleled in all the lands upon the earth,
Beauty unbridled forth leaps in foam flashing waves.

Ageless bound in dance with the encircling moon,
So rise and fall in succession the smashing waves.

What, of all viable forces, could inspire more
Than the sheer power and grace of the pashing waves?

Steadily shaped through the endless courses of time,
Ever reformed are the shores by great lashing waves.

Often, alone, has Zahaar stood watching in awe
Terrible wonder and life of the thrashing waves.

I feel almost dumb because I didn't notice your 2nd line pattern until the last stanza. But, I figure I'll just blame that on your awesome flow that kept me from paying too much attention to it. And, I've gotta compliment you on your word choice; simply awesome! Though, I did have to look up PASH because I'd never heard it before. Also, who's Zahaar? That part got me confused, and I know it must be crucial to the conclusion in some manner or another, so could you inform my poor uneducated self, please? *grins* Wonderful write!
