RAIN AND SEA

  RAIN AND SEA   

dark green,

rough and clean,

the waters

of the storm,

when rain and sea

meet

in liquid harmony,

and so it seems

to one

on

the warm side,

dry side,

inside

of windows

gazing out to sea,

unmindful

of fishers’ dilemma

and

        the cacophonous notes

             that jar

                      the music

                          of the mariners.
