New Vistas

The sea attacks the cliffs with tides,
That soon erode their weathered sides.
Without remorse, it wears away
The stones and agate, quartz and clay.
Eventually, they fall to land
Upon the ever shifting sand,
That grinds together the great mass
And slowly as the seasons pass,
What once was cliff, becomes a pile
Of sand and gravel, after while.
The dunes, advancing steadily,
Covering up what used to be,
Present new vistas and we know
We face an unrelenting foe.
The sea will always rearrange.
A constant, in a world of change!

How true this is. Once again you have painted a picture with your words. Liked very much.

SPIRIT: Thanks! I had this really brought home to me, when I visited some beaches last year, I hadn't been to, for 30 years or so. There were major changes!
