Repost...#1... I think
With a title change

*******************

Oceanic sound
Remands to me
The wisdom of the deep.

Resurgent pound
A heark'ning sea
In surfeit at its neap

A mere abound
Of privity
Waves aphorisms leap.

Reflections found
Imploringly
Beseech that I might reap

My quests expound
In verity ~
Percipience my Keep.

I can hear it...
Resurgent pound
A heark'ning sea
In surfeit at its neap

Love the graphic too!

Nanners, this is sooooo you.  The mercurial rise and fall of the ocean booms mightily in my ear.  Very, very sublime.  And don't think that I don't know what that little smiley you use means.

Nan, the rhythm that you have created with the wordsounds and verses in this piece is most lovely...much like the rhythm of the pounding surf. Beautiful, subtle, effective.
