drifting like a weathered branch
on a sea amiss and gone astray
waves weeping for its solitude
wondering o'er its wand'ring way

shoreline waiting like a catcher's mitt
for a toss by seafoam wild and green
it ebbs and flows and closer grows
to the sand floor so pristine

then lights itself with no self-help
on a wave-worn rock along the sand
and rests its wearied head unslept
as if to grasp with out-stretched hand

the coat-tails of the sand-wept* beach
its journey's end within its reach

* not a typo

Brought into shore, resting in our true heart's home...without any effort on our part...that journey is destiny.
Such longing here...such emotion.
You really are in a most creative, and spiritual cycle with your writing Steaven.
Awesome.

"waves weeping for its solitude"

This communicates so many feelings and leaves a lasting impression.

Enjoyed!
