A pale moon peeks cautiously
over the eastern horizon,
admiring its reflection
in emerald waters.

Hungry waves
claw ravenously
at struggling sand,
reclaiming lost ground.

Determined wind
chases fleeing breakers,
scattering salty spray
across huddling dunes.

A night bird cries,
the sound lingers,
then is lost
in ocean's chorus.

Aaaaaw Eddles I loved the imagery here!
"Hungry waves

This is my favorite part...I never looked at it like that before!!! ~hugs~ Great write as always!
