Sea of Whispers

Have you ever been struck by the idea that the sea kissing the shore at your feet has also swept along the beaches on the other side of the world? I have. It fascinates me to think how small our world truly is, despite the vastness of all it contains.

Sea foam against the shore,
secrets breathed upon the tides
telling tales of life not seen.
Each wave a story bold,
each crest a climax.
Muddled,
blending.
details seeping into foam.
Until they lie
soughing on the sand,
breathing deeply,
faintest whispers
of lives afar.
