INSIGNIFICANT
Alone,
walking beach,
insignificant.
Multiple
thoughts of
mostly
unseen--
clairvoyant
Of
you, me
and
all we be,
illuminant.
Loving
to watch the shining sea
reach
from its boundary,
reflecting
shadowed light.
Each
tidal 'offense'
called
back home
through
all day, all night.
Swish...swish...wash...wish...
oceans
so free
sustain
independently
specific
quality
home...for...the...fish
NOTE:
Our
galaxy so small.
Childlike,
we all
insignificantly
refuse
to
face the fact--
no
matter how we abuse
gifts
of space, earth and sea...
who
age, wither, become dust,
is
not our universe—but us!

love the ocean imagery man....wish i was there to catch some rhythm...and we should take better care of our earth....and in the end we are the ashes...
ReplyDeleteInsignificant? No! Huge! Colossal!
ReplyDelete...on the beach ... the ocean ... there the feeling of infinity...
We are ... a grain of sand ... and yet so important ...
We can preserve and enjoy ...
and we can destroy everything ...
Nice reflections by the shining sea Steve ~ I always feel small and insignificant beside the might and beauty of nature ~
ReplyDeleteLove the ocean...lovely write, Steve :)
ReplyDeleteWow, Steve...that pix of the sky and ocean is thrilling....really fits the insignificence of us, neh?
ReplyDeleteBut even though we are just grains of sand, we have the responsibility to not continue to abrate the Earth, but to save whatever we can through our mindful actions.
There is something so satisfying to know that the universe is yes, indeed....beyond our poisoning touch.
Good poem, Steve....you have vision and honesty in your words.

We need to realize just how finite a space this beautiful earth is and that we all need to co-exist here peacefully.
ReplyDelete"who age, wither, become dust",
ReplyDeleteand so we are,
our deed.
love the eternal water imagery...
ReplyDeleteI love the ending words on the comment of Lady Nyo - your words have vision and honesty.
ReplyDeleteSo true. She couldn't have said it better.
The picture is beautiful - compared to the sky and sea and the whole universe, man does seem insignificant.
But, no we are not.
Psalm 8 says God has created us to be only a little lower than the angels... he has crowned us with glory and honor... and has given us dominion and authority.
Wow... definitely not insignificant, Steve!
I was awakened at midnight with a blog post brewing on my heart... but thought I would drop by your blog place before signing off.
Blessings on your new day, as I return to continue the rest of my sleep.
