Ocean’s Emotions

water hits across the rocks
it has no other place to go
so it quietly runs to the edges
a jagged place for its flow
this fluid forward movement
hard landing to comprehend
waved emotion in salt spray
softly racing to a stone end

"be prepared to bleed"  Joni Mitchell

neat phrase..."waved emotion in salt spray
softly racing to a stone end" ....so understandably resolute with such a sense of finality

nice poem...
